***********************************************************************************************
"Scarfolk is a town in north-west England that did not progress
beyond 1979. The entire decade of the 1970s loops ad infinitum. In
Scarfolk children must not be seen OR heard, and everyone has to be
in bed by 8 p.m. because they are perpetually running a slight
fever..." Part-comedy, part-horror, part-satire, Discovering
Scarfolk is the surreal account of a family trapped in the town.
Through public information posters, news reports, books, tourist
brochures and other ephermera, we learn about the darker side of
childhood, school and society in Scarfolk. A massive cult hit
online, Scarfolk re-creates with shiver-inducing accuracy and
humour our most nightmarish childhood memories. The perfect gift or
self-purchase for any forty or fifty-something with a dark sense of
humour!
