New Gillion Street (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781915789075)

Albert Smith and his family live on a neat street in Neo-Yuthea, divided into 'Even's and 'Odd's. All chugs along perfectly well without politics: there is even an agreement of neutrality and, instead of money, the street trade in fruit and commodities. However, one morning Mr Zand posts a leaflet through every door: he is standing to be Mayor of New Gillion Street. As Mr Zand's power grows, life becomes uncertain. Strange creatures from the forest cause shock deaths. Arranged marriages are forced to preserve 'peace in the community'. Albert and his wife's garden meetings will not be tolerated for much longer. And when that happens, total chaos will unfold...
