Brexit divides the generations. Benjamin makes a decision and Colin Trotter casts his vote. Read by Jeff Rawle. From 2018.

Benjamin finally makes a decision on the Referendum, and Colin Trotter walks to the postbox to cast his postal vote.

Jonathan Coe's satirical novel about Brexit Britain.

Abridged by Richard Hamilton.

Car factories have been replaced by pound shops, and in London riots give way to Olympic fever, Middle England follows a Britain through a time of mind-boggling change.

It paints a portrait of modern England up to Brexit: a country of nostalgia and delusion; of bewilderment and barely-suppressed rage.

Read by Jeff Rawle.

Producer: Justine Willett

First broadcast on 麻豆社 Radio 4 in November 2018.
