THE CLOSED CIRCLE

Welcome to the Club, Jonathan Coe's masterpiece, which follows the rise of the right and the rise of the Conservatives in England in the late 1970s through the story of four students at a Birmingham school and their families, received critical acclaim in Brazil and around the world. CLOSED CIRCLE continues the story of these characters. At the turn of the millennium in England, Benjamin's life consists of watching television nonstop and mourning an old flame. His brother, Paul Trotter, is the new Labour voice in Parliament, supporting the invasion of Iraq.
