American small town bigoted life is viciously exposed by a novelist basking in his fame in New York. There is the book, the film, the T-shirt and now, seventeen years later, the author returns home, the only place he is not adored. Facing his past, old hurts and humiliations, he finally grows up. A poignant reflection on love, loyalty, duty, hope and coming to terms with your past. Highly recommended.
Comparison: Tony Parsons, Ben Elton, John Harding.
