“[Rebuilding Coventry is] great fun, thanks to Ms. Townsend’s crisp, clever prose and her unabashed glee at wringing from her wacky characters the essence of their vileness.”
New York Times
Sue Townsend, bestselling author of the Adrian Mole series, will have you laughing out loud with Rebuilding Coventry—a satire on modern Britain and the battle of the sexes.
There are two things that you should know about me immediately: the first is that I am beautiful, the second is that yesterday I killed a man. Both things were accidents.
When Midlands housewife Coventry Dakin kills her neighbor in a wild bid to prevent him from strangling his wife, she goes on the run. Finding herself alone and friendless in London, she tries to lose herself in the city’s maze of streets. There she meets a bewildering cast of eccentric characters—from Professor Willoughby D’Eresby and his perpetually naked wife Letitia to Dodo, an inhabitant of Cardboard City—all of whom contrive to change Coventry in ways she could never have foreseen.
