John Hodson / One Small Circle

Product Description

One Small Circle is a poignant, entertaining story of a group of friends. During the course of a year each struggles to shape their life, but this is a year that shapes them. John Hodson writes in a style all his own, mixing playful humour with superbly touching prose.

It seems we're perpetually beset by bosses who're trying to fry our brains with this 'work' nonsense they keep going on about. And has anybody else noticed that the rest of the world has gone completely bonkers? 'Conceptual art' indeed - they should be locking these people up, not giving them millions for vomiting all over the canvas. And I have to say, the jury's out on relationships. Surely they're meant to be easier than this? Frankly, the world is not well designed. And then, just when we think we have what we want, that's when things really start to go wrong.

This is the perfect book for anyone who finds the modern world laughable, but is still hopeful it might turn out not to be a complete disaster after all.

Back cover We live in a world where bosses are clueless, love lives are hopeless, and plans seem fruitless. It's time for change - but when your plan calls for Ingenuity will it be answered by her twin sister, Stupidity? One Small Circle is an amazing mixture of laughter and tears, light-heartedness and desperate gravity, frustration and success. Whatever the moment, good or bad, we are part of it. But can our narrator's graceful words shelter us if the sweetest moment contains the bitterest pill?
