Story
From the frenzy of the 2012 Olympics to the aftermath of the Brexit referendum, here Jonathan Coe chronicles the story of modern Britain by way of a cast of characters whose world is being upended. There are newlyweds who disagree about the country’s future and, possibly, their relationship; a political commentator who writes impassioned columns about austerity from his lavish town house while his radical teenage daughter undertakes a relentless quest for universal justice; and Benjamin Trotter, who embarks on an apparently doomed new career in middle age, and his father.

Story
In Bournville, a placid suburb of Birmingham, sits a famous chocolate factory. For eleven-year-old Mary and her family in 1945, it's the centre of the world. The reason their streets smell faintly of chocolate, the place where most of their friends and neighbours have worked for decades. Mary will go on to live through the Coronation and the World Cup final, royal weddings and royal funerals, Brexit and Covid-19. She'll have children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Story
Unforgettably funny and painfully honest, Jonathan Coe's tale of Benjamin Trotter and his friends' coming of age during the 1970s is a heartfelt celebration of the joys and agonies of growing up. Featuring, among other things, IRA bombs, prog rock, punk rock, bad poetry, first love, love on the side, prefects, detention, a few bottles of Blue Nun, lots of brown wallpaper, industrial strife, and divine intervention in the form of a pair of swimming trunks.

Story
It is the 1980s, and the Winshaw family are getting richer and crueller by the year: newspaper-columnist Hilary gets thousands for telling it like it isn't; Henry's turning hospitals into car parks; Roddy's selling art in return for sex; down on the farm Dorothy's squeezing every last pound from her livestock; and Thomas is making a killing on the stock exchange. But once their hapless biographer, Michael Owen, starts investigating the family's trail of greed, corruption and immoral doings, the time is growing ripe for the Winshaws to receive their comeuppance....

Story
Penguin presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Number 11 by Jonathan Coe, read by Rory Kinnear and Jessica Hynes. This is a novel about the hundreds of tiny connections between the public and private worlds and how they affect us all. It's about the legacy of war and the end of innocence. It's about how comedy and politics are battling it out, and comedy might have won. It's about how 140 characters can make fools of us all.

Story
Ricordate gli anni della Thatcher? Gli anni in cui la rapacità era la virtù, i beni della nazione venivano depredati e Saddam Hussein era un uomo con il quale volentieri si facevano gli affari? È su questo periodo che Jonathan Coe, in uno dei romanzi più divertenti e mortalmente seri degli ultimi anni, butta uno sguardo giocoso e selvaggio. Ne esce un agghiacciante affresco socio-politico che rivela sorprendenti analogie con l'attuale realtà italiana.

Story
L'undicesimo romanzo di Jonathan Coe è una storia dei nostri tempi: dal suicidio di David Kelly, lo scienziato britannico che aveva rivelato le bugie di Tony Blair sulla guerra in Iraq, agli anni austeri della Gran Bretagna che conosciamo oggi. È un romanzo su quell'infinità di piccole connessioni tra la sfera pubblica e quella privata, e su come queste connessioni finiscano per toccarci, tutti. Un romanzo sui lasciti della guerra e sulla fine dell'innocenza.
