Synopsis of Expo 58
En Londres, 1958, el modesto funcionario Thomas Foley es seleccionado de su escritorio en la Oficina Central de Información y enviado a un viaje de seis meses a Bruselas. Su tarea: vigilar The Britannia, un nuevo pub que formará el corazón de la presencia británica en la Expo 58, la mayor Feria Mundial del siglo. Thomas se siente cautivado por el surrealista y gigantesco Atomium y por Anneke, la encantadora azafata flamenca que lo recibe al bajar del avión. Pero la nueva sensación de libertad de Thomas tiene un precio: la Guerra Fría está en su apogeo y dos misteriosos emisarios del Servicio Secreto Británico lo siguen a todas partes. Expo 58 puede representar un futuro brillante, tanto para Europa como para el propio Thomas, pero pronto se verá obligado a decidir dónde residen realmente sus lealtades públicas y privadas.

About the author
Jonathan Coe
Jonathan Coe is an English novelist and writer. His work has an underlying preoccupation with political issues, although this serious engagement is often expressed comically in the form of satire. For example, What a Carve Up! (1994) reworks the plot of an old 1960s spoof horror film of the same name. It is set within the "carve up" of the UK's resources that was carried out by Margaret Thatcher's Conservative governments of the 1980s.
