The Middle Class ABC

The Middle Class ABC is the book loos, bedside tables, and farmers markets the length and breadth of the land have been waiting for—a humorous celebration of the facts (some are even true) and foibles, manners and mores, peccadilloes and armadillos, of contemporary British middle-class life. Letter by letter, the occasionally clever, witty, and absurd observations and cartoons will ring true for all good Middlings. WARNING: you might even recognize your own or your friends’ choices of children’s names, foodie fads, holiday destinations . . . Crammed with affectionately teasing jokes and some truly dreadful puns, this is a book to enjoy at any time of the year in the course of going about one’s business.
