The Casual Vacancy
Description
A big novel about a small town… When Barry Fairbrother dies in his early
forties, the 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 first seems. And
the empty seat left by Barry on the parish council soon becomes the catalyst
for the biggest war the town has yet seen. Who will triumph in an election
fraught with passion, duplicity, and unexpected revelations? A big novel about
a small town, The Casual Vacancy is J.K. Rowling’s first novel for adults. It
is the work of a storyteller like no other. Read more
