Description
The summer of 1986 brings significant cuts to public funds, affecting various sectors including education and the arts. In response, a northern television company is looking for new talent, and they choose an obscure writer named Henry Babbacombe. Henry's life is turned upside down as he is thrust into the media spotlight, forced to leave his private garden shed behind. This sudden change brings unexpected lessons about success in a Britain dominated by Margaret Thatcher's government. This novel explores the challenges of navigating a rapidly changing society and the consequences of being part of it.
