Johnny and Jane Potter, children of a press baron and a popular lady novelist, join Oxford friends in an Anti-Potterite League against everything their parents stand for: muddled thinking, cheap sentiment and profitable cant. Then a death on a staircase tests their principles, told in turn by several narrators.
A sharp, funny satire on the press and post-war idealism that made Macaulay’s name in 1920. Download the free EPUB.
