In A History of Britain Through Books: 1900-1964, Christopher Tugendhat takes readers on a journey through Britain as told through seminal books of the twentieth century, from Lord of the Flies to A Room of One's Own to Heart of Darkness and many more. These books explore the experiences, attitudes and prejudices of the previous century and how they've shaped modern Britain. With unique insight, these carefully selected books, and the lives of their writers, tell the story of a nation undergoing enormous political and social change, both within itself and on the global stage.
