Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
Blending humor with serious social commentary, this delightful novel, shortlisted for the Booker Prize, follows the efforts of Sir Jack Pitman to realize his vision of England as a "theme park," in which all of the nation's principal treasures are grouped together on the Isle of Wight.
Review:
"A provocative dystopian fable that's also a superb vehicle for Barnes's unfailingly fiendish riffs on contemporary social, political, economic, and sexual underhandedness and overkill."
Kirkus, 03/15/1999

Booker Prize Finalist "Wickedly funny." --"The New York Times" Imagine an England where all the pubs are quaint, where the Windsors behave themselves (mostly), where the cliffs of Dover are actually white, and where Robin Hood and his merry men really are merry. This is precisely what visionary tycoon, Sir Jack Pitman, seeks to accomplish on the Isle of Wight, a "destination" where tourists can find replicas of Big Ben (half size), Princess Di's grave, and even Harrod's (conveniently located inside the tower of London). Martha Cochrane, hired as one of Sir Jack's resident "no-people," ably assists him in realizing his dream. But when this land of make-believe gradually gets horribly and hilariously out of hand, Martha develops her own vision of the perfect England. Julian Barnes delights us with a novel that is at once a philosophical inquiry, a burst of mischief, and a moving elegy about authenticity and nationality.
