Description

This is the fifth novel in Anthony Powell's brilliant twelve-novel sequence, A Dance to the Music of Time which chronicles the lives of over 300 characters, and is a unique evocation of life in twentieth-century England. It is unrivalled for its scope, its humour and the enormous pleasure it has given to generations. Casanova's Chinese Restaurant follows Nicholas Jenkins, Kenneth Widmerpool and others, as they negotiate the intellectual, cultural and social hurdles which stand between them and the 'Acceptance World'.
