Tom Sharpe's gloriously anarchic comedy about Lady Maud Lynchwood's battle against a motorway threatening her ancestral pile. Enter Blott, her magnificently loyal gardener with a m ysterious past and a talent for creative sabotage. What follows is pure satirical chaos—think exploding bulldozers, bureaucratic nightmares, and one of the most wickedly funny takedowns of British planning committees ever written.
