Brexit is looming. Conclusion of Jonathan Coe's satirical novel.

With Brexit looming - Benjamin and Lois move to France. Concluded by Jeff Rawle.  From 2018.

2017- with Brexit looming, Benjamin and Lois move to France.  

Jonathan Coe's satirical novel about Brexit Britain.

Abridged by Richard Hamilton.

Car factories have been replaced by pound shops, and in London riots give way to Olympic fever, Middle England follows a Britain through a time of mind-boggling change.

It paints a portrait of modern England up to Brexit: a country of nostalgia and delusion; of bewilderment and barely-suppressed rage.

Concluded by Jeff Rawle.

Producer: Justine Willett

First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in November 2018.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
