Good Neighbours (Paperback, New edition)

Dr. Richard Gordon had no desire to leave the idyllic orchards and hop fields of Kent. For him, the postcode BR1 2AX has the ring of the Gulag Archipelago and is to be avoided at all costs. However, after a decade living in suburbia he has come to love it--the way Gauguin loved Tahiti. "Good Neighbours" is a hilarious account of the habits and customs of the residents of Britain's many suburbs. Using his famed wry wit, Gordon comically exposes the fundamental structures and motivations of suburban society. Essential reading for anyone constantly baffled by those infuriating neighbors down the road
