The Pendulum Years: Britain In The Sixties

A classic portrait of Sixties Britain by one of the most brilliant commentators of the time.

First published in 1970, 'The Pendulum Years' argues that many of the striking features of the preceding decade stemmed from an underlying tension between the pull of the past and the pull of the future. Coruscating and often hilarious, it is an unparalleled examination of epochal times.
