The King of the Badgers by Philip Hensher
A child abduction focuses attention on a small Devon coastal town. What follows is a portrait of the lives and issues of the inhabitants. Well-observed and frequently funny - notably a hilarious evening in which a restrained neighbourhood soirée gets mixed up with a gay orgy - it borders on being patronising but you want to keep on reading. (Tony Pratt)
