Review of The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner (1962) by Hannah D — 15 Jul 2014
The title might indicate that this is a sporting drama, but the running very much takes a back seat as it focusses on the troubled home life of the protagonist Colin Smith. The drama is partially set in Nottingham, a city very close to my heart, so that was an added bonus.
It's a really interesting 1960s social drama, with good characters and acting.
