The second novel of David Lodge's hilarious campus trilogy - shortlisted for the Booker Prize in 1984.

Philip Swallow, Morris Zapp, Persse McGarrigle and the lovely Angelica are the jet-propelled academics who are on the move, in the air and on the make in David Lodge's satirical Small World.

It is a world of glamorous travel and high excitement, where stuffy lecture rooms are swapped for lush corners of the globe, and romance is in the air...

Reviews for Small World

"""The most brilliant and also the funniest novel that he has written"" London Review of Books ""Ingenious and proliferate plotting...a new comic debacle over every page"" The Times ""Academic infightings, couplings, touching, funny and frightful set pieces, dark humour, sharp wit and plain farce - here is everything one expects from this author but thricefold and three times as entertaining as anything he has written before"" Sunday Telegraph ""A wonderful tissue of outrageous coincidences and correspondences, teasing elevations of suspense and delayed climaxes"" Observer"
