Book First Edition
Hardback. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. First edition. Jonathan Cape, London, 1998. First edition. Book condition: near fine. Dust jacket condition: near fine. Having examined England's twin obsessions - violence and sex - in 'The Football Factory' and 'Headhunters', John king completes his loose trilogy with 'England Away': sex and violence abroad, under the Union Jack. The novel works on three levels - past, present and future - as pensioner Bill Farrell remembers his war experiences in London, Tom Johnson fights his way through Holland and Germany for an England football match in Berlin, and Harry Roberts considers the future, fuelled by Dutch herbs and German chemicals. This powerful novel looks at what being English means to three characters in the shadow of the new European superstate. Exploring stereotypes of language and patriotism, 'England Away' culminates in a unity of the tribes and a blitzkrieg through the streets of Berlin. Book.
