Dollarville

First UK edition of Pete Davies's Dollarville

Pete Davies

First UK edition. 8vo. Pp. [x], 211. Rust-coloured cloth, lettered in gilt to spine.
Author's second novel. A satirical thriller set in the not too distant future. A dissident ecologist and a man hunkering after a quiet life get caught up in political intrigue. Author's eyewitness account of the England men's football team at the 1990 World Cup, All Played Out, which was adapted into the 2010 documentary film, One Night in Turin, has been described as "the best football book ever written" by Esquire magazine. "His explosive humour, bullseye social and political skewering and dialogue reminiscent of Burgess's A Clockwork Orange make this an amazingly funny, believably bleak vision of an awful world – awfully similar to ours."
