As in Austerity Britain an astonishing array of vivid intimate & unselfconscious voices drive this narrative. The keen-eyed Nella Last shops assiduously at Barrow Market as austerity & rationing gradually give way to relative abundance; housewife Judy Haines relishing the detail of suburban life brings up her children in Chingford; & the self-absorbed civil servant Henry St John perfects the art of grumbling. These & many other voices give a rich unsentimental picture of everyday life in the 1950s. We also encounter well-known figures on the way such as Doris Lessing (joining & later leaving the Communist Party) John Arlott (sticking up on Any Questions? for the rights of homosexuals) & Tiger's Roy of the Rovers (making his goal-scoring debut for Melchester). All this is part of a colourful unfolding tapestry in which the great national events
- the Tories returning to power the death of George VI the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth the Suez Crisis
- jostle alongside everything that gave Britain in the 1950s its distinctive flavour: Butlin's holiday camps Kenwood food mixers Hancock's Half-Hour" Ekco television sets Davy Crockett skiffle & teddy boys. Deeply researched David Kynaston's " Family Britain" offers an unrivalled take on a largely cohesive ordered still very hierarchical society gratefully starting to move away from the painful hardships of the 1940s towards domestic ease & affluence."
