Jerusalem

Jordan: Deliverable within 48 hours
International: Deliverable within 7 Days
Description
‘He looks like a Brit, this guy. Full of good intentions and bad ideas.’Straddling two continents and two centuries, Patrick Neate’s Jerusalem is a sweeping and hilarious epic of English misadventures abroad and at home. It features a self-serving MP lost and alone in an African dictatorship; a young, ultra-hip entrepreneur looking for something (or someone) new to exploit and an English veteran of a colonial war trying to save England from itself. With a host of other brilliant and brilliantly drawn characters, this is the funniest and most moving story of Englishness as it never was, isn’t now and, hopefully, will never be.
