How I Killed Margaret Thatcher

Resumen del libro

In 1979 Sean Bull, a bright nine-year-old lives an untroubled childhood with his extended family in the heart of the industrial Midlands.His dad and granddad, role models, work hard at the local steel foundries, while his young uncle dabbles in politics and painting. Sean enjoys his school and football, and caravan holidays in Wales, but can't help listening in to the increasingly worrying conversation of the adults around him. When Margaret Thatcher becomes Prime Minister she slowly begins to take away everything Sean loves.

He decides that someone's got to stop her. This sad, comic novel captures the intensity of early 1980s Britain through the eyes of an unusual Black Country boy and offers an English twist on the most Latin American of genres, the Dictator novel.
