Book description
Would you cheer if they sent you to Coventry? Could you stick up
for Stoke or big-up Bracknell?Can you handle the thrill of Rhyl, the
heaven of Hull or the mirth of Tydfil?
In You are Awful, Tim Moore drives his Austin Maestro round
all the places on our beloved island that nobody wants to go to - our
most miserable towns, shonkiest hotels, scariest pubs, and silliest
sea zoos...
But as the soggy, decrepit quest unfolds he finds himself oddly
smitten, and the result is a rousing, nostalgic celebration of mad,
bad But I Like You Britain.
Tim Moore's books include
French Revolutions
,
Do Not Pass Go, Spanish Steps
and
Nul Points
and
I Believe in Yesterday
. He lives in London.
