1 in stock
Description
'Grantchester Grind' by Tom Sharpe is a comic novel set in the absurd and chaotic world of Cambridge academia, where institutional rivalries, eccentric personalities and bureaucratic incompetence collide. Part of Sharpe’s Porterhouse series, the story returns to Porterhouse College, where the Master and college authorities become embroiled in a struggle involving the college’s future, its traditions and the consequences of its own mismanagement. Sharpe’s characteristically outrageous humour exposes the vanity, hypocrisy and power struggles of academic and political life. A satirical continuation of the Porterhouse novels, it will appeal to readers who enjoy irreverent British humour and farcical social comedy.
