Bienvenue au club - Le Cercle fermé.

"C’est pour moi une évidence que Bienvenue au club et Le cercle fermé ne sauraient exister l’un sans l’autre."
Jonathan Coe.

Dans ce diptyque, miroir d’une génération tout entière, Jonathan Coe passe du roman d'apprentissage à la chronique politique, de Thatcher à Blair, du choc pétrolier à la guerre en Irak. Et c’est avec une joie féroce qu’on regarde se débattre Benjamin, Philip, Doug et tous les autres, en proie à d’irréductibles contradictions.

Jonathan Coe, born 19 August 1961 in Birmingham, is a British novelist and writer. His work usually has an underlying preoccupation with political issues, although this serious engagement is often expressed comically in the form of satire. For example, What a Carve Up! reworks the plot of an old 1960s spoof horror film of the same name, in the light of the 'carve up' of the UK's resources which some felt was carried out by Margaret Thatcher's right wing Conservative governments of the 1980s. Coe studied at King Edward's School, Birmingham and Trinity College, Cambridge, before teaching at the University of Warwick where he completed a PhD in English Literature. In July 2006 he was given an honorary degree by The University of Birmingham.
