About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Seven Londoners are invited to an opulent dinner party. From a brutal hedge-funder to a lovelorn barrister, a Polish footballer to a pickle magnate, they are defined by the virtual worlds of religious extremism, financial gambling, drugs and internet obsession they inhabit. But it is 2007, the Crash is coming, and all will face a terrible reckoning.

A Week in December is a dazzling and darkly comic state-of-the-nation novel.

'A thoughtful page-turner' THE TIMES

It has taken me so long to read/listen to this book...why did it take so long? Every word is gripping as the lives of the characters unfold.
Don’t delay, listen to an excellent story.

Wonderful

thoroughly griping characters and as expected exceptional writing. Stevens is a master class in narration.

Disappointing....a bit too 'clever by half' but still tedious. i usually love this author's books and cannot recommend this.

Not for me...
