Description
The residents of Pepys Road, London, are about to receive a mysterious postcard with a simple message: we want what you have. The identity of the sender and their intentions are unknown, but the impact on the community is immediate and far-reaching. As the financial crisis deepens, the lives of the people on Pepys Road are turned upside down. The postcard's arrival sets off a chain of events that exposes the secrets and desires of those living on the street. The story unfolds over the course of a year, revealing the complexities and interconnectedness of the community. Through the eyes of the residents, John Lanchester explores the human cost of economic change and the power of ordinary people to shape their own destinies.
