Driving the four hundred miles from Glasgow to London, Theodore Dalrymple observed practically every yard of roadside littered with rubbish, flapping in the wind like Buddhist prayer flags.
What does it say about a culture when a country tips its rubbish anywhere it likes?
Key Highlights:
- Setting: Dalrymple's journey spans from the poorer areas where he used to work to broader observations of modern life.
- Themes: Chewing gum, student behavior, and the attitudes of the educated are all scrutinized.
- Tone: Witty and unsparing, Dalrymple casts a sharp eye on the shared aspects of contemporary culture.
This is a thought-provoking and incisive exploration of society, sure to resonate with readers who enjoy cultural criticism.
