2022.245.1Description
In the worst, poorest, most benighted corner of London is Fowlers End, one of the most godforsaken spots on the face of the earth. It is here that young Daniel Laverock, starving and nearly penniless at the height of the Great Depression, takes the only job he can find: manager of the Pantheon Theater (...).A comic romp with echoes of Dickens, Rabelais, and The Beggar's Opera, Kersh's novel remains one of the funniest English novels of the 20th century and one of the best works of fiction ever written about London. --Google booksCreate Date
