Description

Originally released in 1960, this well-known novel about disappointed childhood set the groundwork for modern authors including Tony Parsons and Nick Hornby. About love, lust, and isolation, the guide presents Vic Brown, a working class Yorkshireman. Vic is drawn to the beautiful but challenging Ingrid, and as their relationship changes and develops, he involves exactly what it way to love and terms—the difficult way—with person lifestyle. The impact of Barstowis new has been enduring: the fictional tag "lad-lit" was initially put on this guide, and through the years it's been used for television, radio, and the silver screen.
