Synopsis
Consummately contentious and fabulously funny, The Idler Book of Crap Towns is the real rough guide to where not to go in Britain. The authors name and shame the 50 worst towns on the island, revealing them in all their hideous glory. From the dull and lifeless to the ugly and depressing, no concrete monstrosity or phony heritage center has gone unscathed. Woking, Bognor Regis, Cleator Moor, Crouch End, Slough—your time is up.

About the Author
The Idler, a literary magazine that takes a sideswipe at our work ethic, was founded in 1993 and sought to provide inspiration and comfort to idlers everywhere. With contributions from names such as Louis Theroux, Toby Litt, Jonathan Ross, Jonathan Coe, Helen Fielding, Umberto Eco and Will Self The Idler's blend of satire, celebrity, reflection and pleasure has made it into one of the country's best-loved small magazines.
Review
'I wish I could think of just one thing I could tell you about Hull, oh yes...it's very nice and flat for cycling.' Philip Larkin
