A BOSTON GLOBE BOOK OF THE YEAR An epic human tale that feels as if it was ripped from English folklore. One in which questions of friendship, creatiive expression, and the life purpose collde with modern British history. A must-read for every Anglophile.--Roger Bennett, Men in Blazers, author of (Re)Born in the USA Summer 1989, deep in the English countryside -- during a time of mass unemployment, class war, and rebellion . . . . Over the course of a burning hot summer, two very different men -- Calvert, an ex-soldier traumatized by his experience in the Falklands War, and his affable, off-the-grid friend Redbone -- set out nightly in a decrepit camper van to undertake an extraordinary project, traversing the fields of rural England and creating crop circles in elaborate and mysterious patterns. And as the summer wears on, and their designs grow ever more ambitious, the two men find that their work has become a cult international sensation... Moving and exhilarating, tender and slyly witty, The Perfect Golden Circle is a captivating novel about the futility of war, the descruction of the English countryside, class inequality -- and the power of beauty to heal trauma and fight power.
