    When Barry Fairweather dies unexpectedly in his early 40s, the little town of Pagford is left in shock. Pagford is, seemingly, an English idyll, with a cobbled market square and an ancient abbey, but what lies behind the pretty façade is a town at war. Rich at war with poor, teenagers at war with their parents, wives at war with their husbands, teachers at war with their pupils.... Pagford is not what it at first seems. And the empty seat left by Barry on the town's council soon becomes the catalyst for the biggest war the town has yet seen.

    What would have made The Casual Vacancy better?

    Once the death occurs, which is early on in the book the remainder (and please note that I couldn't finish it) is boring and there are so many characters it becomes very difficult to follow.


    Any additional comments?

    The narration was great, but that alone could not convince me to keep listening beyond part 1 of 3.
