The Fortnight in September
Robert Cedric Sherriff2017

The Fortnight in September, a bestseller in 1931, was a very brave book to write because it was not obviously ‘about’ anything except the ‘drama of the undramatic’. And yet the greatness of the novel is that it is about each one of us: all of human life is here in the seemingly simple description of the family’s annual holiday in Bognor Regis.
