Description
This novel by David Lodge explores the changing attitudes towards sex and faith in England in the 1950s and 1960s. As the characters navigate their way through university and into adulthood, they must confront the tensions between traditional Catholic values and the emerging permissive society.
The book delves into the pressures faced by Catholics in a more liberal world, and the eternal question that arises: how far can you go? Lodge's razor-sharp prose offers a thought-provoking examination of the human experience, one that is both nuanced and insightful.
With its thought-provoking themes and engaging narrative, this novel is a compelling read for anyone interested in literary fiction and satire.
