«Summer Things» is the comic novel by British writer Joseph Connolly, published by Faber & Faber in paperback (371 pages, in English).
Several neighbours meet on holiday on the English coast with very different plans: Elizabeth wants a luxurious summer, her neighbour Dotty tries to imitate her, single mother Melody travels with her baby, and Miles seeks adventure. Jealousy, lust and misunderstandings turn the summer into a farcical chaos.
Published in 1999, the novel has been compared to the work of Kingsley Amis and Tom Sharpe.
For readers of British comedy of errors who appreciate social satire and corrosive humour, with unfiltered characters.
Joseph Connolly is an English journalist, novelist, and non-fiction writer.
