The 1950s are not grey, not in Jonathan Meades's detailed, petit-point memoir, where they are luridly polychromatic. They were peopled by embittered grotesques, bogus majors, reckless bohos, pompous boors, suicides. Death went dogging everywhere. Salisbury, where he was brought up, had two industries: God and the Cold War, both of which provided a cast of adults for the child to scrutinise with wonder and fear.

About the Author
Jonathan Meades's most recent book `Museum Without Walls' was selected as a book of the year by seven critics. He has since published a box of photos in postcard form, `Pidgin Snaps'. His new films `Concrete Poetry' are in praise of brutalist architecture and will be transmitted on BBC4 in March 2014.
