Описание:
Forty years after the publication of the first When The Boat Comes In novel, Jack High picks up the story of Jack Ford and the Seaton family just as the Post-First World War boom begins to subside. Jack's boat has finally come in. It is 1925 and with ample wealth from a risky land deal, the ex-army Sergeant and Great War survivor has left the struggling Tyneside town of Gallowshield for London. On a night out in Soho, he rescues a man from a beating outside the 1917 Club. The man is former Cabinet Minister Charles Needham, an unlikely North-Eastern Labour MP. They become firm friends and ambitious Jack is introduced to the underground club scene of the Jazz Age where the grim horrors of war are long forgotten. The privileged few regard life with a sense of entitlement and their hedonistic pastimes of drink, drugs and sex, are ferociously pursued in these new nightspots around hidden London. Needham, a wealthy landowner, invites Ford to return with him to Gallowshield and Jack agrees because his former fianc e and the only woman he has ever loved, Jessie Ashton, still lives there. Jessie is a principled Socialist and Jack had been the love of her life until he betrayed her for another woman. On his return, Jack realises the old town is worse off now than when he left it. The post-war boom has given way to bust as economic stagnation hits manufacturing industry. Trade across Europe is at a standstill and the familiar diseases of unemployment and poverty are beginning to bite. He despises the town as he's always done, but still it manages to surprise him. By sheer chance he encounters a woman he had last seen in Murmansk in 1919. He'd smuggled Countess Irena Goliksyn onto a train bound for Finland to escape the Bolsheviks after the Russian Revolution. What on earth was she doing representing a Russian Trade Union delegation in a grimy old town like Gallowshield? As Jessie and her family become embroiled in the chicanery, Jack's best friend Matt faces the political backlash which could cost him his job and his home. What unfolds is a story of love, jealousy, revenge and subterfuge against a backdrop of privileged escapism, greed and addiction. The war to end all wars is over but the Old Order and the New World are on a collision course. When Jack's friends desperately cry for help, he needs all his resourcefulness, guile and determination to help them. But what's in it for Jack? "
Jack High - The fourth novel in the series - involves a brand-new storyline. It accounts for some of the missing years between Jack's rise to riches in the early 1920s and the Great Depression of the 1930s which were never covered in the hit BBC television series or the original books written by When The Boat Comes In creator, James Mitchell. The prolific author died in 2002 and Jack High was written by his son, former TV producer and journalist, Peter Mitchell.
Описание: A fresh set of concerns face the twenty-first century British novelist. In this study of the four key novelists Zadie Smith, Nadeem Aslam, Hari Kunzru and David Mitchell, the the changes in narrative approaches and critical directions of a new post-1989 fiction are explored. Close readings of the writers are informed by a range of contemporary theorists, critics and commentators to reveal the emphases of twenty-first century fiction. Terror, fear, consumerism, multinationalism, and corporatism: the terms circulating in culture and social networks are evident in Smith's faith in ethical living, Aslam's consideration of multiculturalism, the novels Kunzru builds around the politics of identity and in the importance Mitchell places on the interconnectedness of human life. By putting the emergence of a new British literary dynamic in the context of ethical as well as global contexts, this study analyzes the transformed fictional perceptions of a world no longer defined by the stand off of super powers.
