Description

Set in the waning years of London s Fleet Street, this is the story of John Dyson and his colleagues in the crossword and nature-notes section of an obscure London newspaper. The ambitious young Dyson dreams wistfully of trading his dead-end job for the fame and fortune to be found in a career in television. But when he finally gets his big break – an invitation to appear on a TV program – it turns out instead to be the beginning of a series of hilarious disasters … Regarded by many as the best novel ever written about journalists, Michael Frayn s brilliantly funny Towards the End of the Morning (1967) is justly celebrated as a classic in Great Britain but has been long unavailable in America. This new edition features an introduction by the author. The most delightful, sophisticated novel: Michael Frayn is probably England s funniest writer. – New York Times High comedy … an extremely well-written, witty novel. – Daily Telegraph A gem of a comic book. It s a brilliant, fast game of poker with the author holding all the best hands. – Vogue Still ranks with Evelyn Waugh s Scoop as one of the funniest novels about journalists ever written. – Sunday Times
