  • "When Barry Fairweather dies unexpectedly in his early forties, the little town of Pagford is left in shock. Pagford is, seemingly, an English idyll, with a cobbled market square and an ancient abbey, but what lies behind the pretty facade is a town at war. Rich at war with poor, teenagers at war with their parents, wives at war with their husbands, teachers at war with their pupils. Pagford is not what it first seems. And the empty seat left by Barry on the parish council soon becomes the catalyst for the biggest war the town has yet seen. Who will triumph in an election fraught with passion, duplicity and unexpected revelations?"

  • "Als Barry Fairbrother mit Anfang vierzig plötzlich stirbt, sind die Einwohner von Pagford geschockt. Denn auf den ersten Blick ist die englische Kleinstadt mit ihrem hübschen Marktplatz ein verträumtes und friedliches Idyll, dem Aufregung fremd ist. Doch der Schein trügt. Hinter der malerischen Fassade liegt die Stadt im Krieg. Krieg zwischen arm und reich, zwischen Kindern und ihren Eltern, zwischen Frauen und ihren Ehemännern, zwischen Lehrern und Schülern. Und dass Barrys Sitz im Gemeinderat nun frei wird, schafft den Nährboden für den grössten Krieg, den die Stadt je erlebt hat."
