What a story. What a great story'' TESSA HADLEY\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Homework, Geoff Dyer reflects on his childhood and what it means to come of age in England in the 60s and 70s, in a country shaped by the aftermath of the Second World War but accelerating towards change. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHe was born in Cheltenham in the late fifties, the only child of a dinner lady and a planning engineer. Raised in a working-class area, Geoff and his mates found much joy recreating battles with their beloved Tommy guns, kicking a beachball around until its untimely death, and collecting anything and everything they could find; football cards, conkers and Action Man figures. When Geoff passes his 11-plus exams he gets in to a Cheltenham Grammar School, a school which drastically changes the trajectory of his life.","brand":"Canongate Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51446519759195,"sku":"9781837261987","price":31.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/suomalainen-test.myshopify.com\/products\/homework","provider":"Suomalainen Test","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
