Publisher's Synopsis

This novel is an unfolding panorama of scenes; of boyhood in one of the semi-barbarous schools of the period; of undergraduate life at "Oxbridge"; and of London in the 1830's and 1840's. Throughout, it bears the imprint of the author - at once sentimental and ironic, jovial and disenchanted.

About the Publisher

Penguin Books Ltd

The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
