UTOPIA AVENUE: David Mitchell
UTOPIA AVENUE
by David Mitchell
Step into David Mitchell’s latest book and start weaving in and out of London’s streets in the 1960s. The titular Utopia Avenue is one of those fictional bands you wish was real and could put the pin on the vinyl and listen as you read. This is a book that captures the 1960s in its entirety: its sounds, drama, events, phobias and of course its music. The members of Utopia Avenue will stay with you; each is very different but all bring their own certain magic to keep you turning the page.
