Product Information
Campbell Flynn, art historian, professor, and fêted fixture of the literati, always knew that when his life came crashing down, it would happen in public--yet he never imagined that a single year in London would expose so much. He's never taken other people half as seriously as they take themselves, which is the first of his mistakes. The second is a new project: opportunistic and precisely calibrated to rake in a fortune. Riding on the high of a best-selling biography of Vermeer and fielding more inquiries and requests than he has the time or patience to pursue, Campbell has nevertheless still not managed to shake the question of money. The fact of his quiet loan from a school friend now embroiled in scandal makes the ever-present worry feel even more pressing. His unflappable agent, Atticus; his steadfast wife, Elizabeth; his sister, Moira, crusading parliamentarian for the poor; his well-adjusted, well-off adult children, Angus and Kenzie; and all the outward trappings of success can't conceal that something in his life is off. As Campbell becomes increasingly entangled with a brilliant student, convention-smashing and working class, like he used to be, he feels he's been given a second chance to embrace the change that frightens him, even as he sees trouble brewing for his family and friends. Campbell's personal quest takes him down darker roads than he could have imagined, and all his worlds--the art scene and academia, fashion and the English aristocracy, journalism and the internet--collide in spectacular fashion, culminating in one shocking night on Caledonian Road.

Reviews
A pitch-perfect tragicomedy of manners.... A book--it's hard to resist the word Dickensian--that feels as near an authentic slice of contemporary London life as any packed tube carriage., Caledonian Road is a brilliant, barnstorming state-of-the-nation novel that blasts the doors off shady workplaces, pulls down the facades of high society, and knocks over the 'good liberal' house-of-cards. But Andrew O'Hagan is not only a peerless chronicler of our times. He has other gifts--of generosity, humor, and tenderness--which make this novel an utter joy to read., A masterpiece. . . . Flynn is such a powerfully complete portrait of a person, a wonderfully rounded and compelling character, and I deeply felt for him. And the comedy! Not just line by line but page by page are laugh-out-loud funny. Amazing. Caledonian Road is extraordinary., A brilliant, barnstorming state-of-the-nation novel that blasts the doors off shady workplaces, pulls down the facades of high society, and knocks over the 'good liberal' house of cards. But Andrew O'Hagan is not only a peerless chronicler of our times. He has other gifts--of generosity, humor, and tenderness--which make this novel an utter joy to read., An addictively enjoyable yarn; a state-of-the-nation social novel with the swagger and bling of an airport bestseller and an insider's grasp on the nuances of high culture.... A bold, bullish tale of hubris and corruption, a book simultaneously dazzled and disgusted by the city it depicts.... Nimble, lively and sure-footed., Identity politics has shrunk our literary ambitions and cowed writers into shirking the task, which remains the same for us as it was for the original Victorians: to encompass the present in prose like Britain is rung around with water. Andrew O'Hagan, with his new two-fisted, triple-decker, four-on-the-floor magnum opus has made more than a great book--he has made a social miracle., Remarkable.... A novel on a scale which is rare today, and one which makes you think and feel at the same time., I loved this novel--loved its ambition and scale and scope and certainty--its panache and brio and the joy in the writing. It's Dickens and Wolfe and Thackeray and Hogarth and Amis. By the end I felt like I'd hurled myself off a skyscraper called London 2022 and as I fell I managed to snatch a precious glimpse into each different apartment and life, interconnected and separate, with people of different hues and accents, dreaming of wishing they were someone else, or just trying to survive another day in this torrid and glorious mess we call now., An epic way-we-live-now social novel set in a rapidly corroding London.... O'Hagan shares [Tom] Wolfe's gift for delivering a panoply of unique characters.... There's no doubting the scope of [O'Hagan's] ambition; when future generations seek to understand post-pandemic Britain, this will be one of the first places they look. A sprawling critique of so-called polite society., I loved this novel--loved its ambition and scale and scope and certainty--its panache and brio and the joy in the writing. It's Dickens and Wolfe and Thackeray and Hogarth and Amis., A masterpiece...Flynn is such a powerfully complete portrait of a person, a wonderfully rounded and compelling character, and I deeply felt for him. And the comedy! Not just line by line but page by page are laugh-out-loud funny. Amazing. Caledonian Road is extraordinary., A hugely enjoyable read, all delivered in O'Hagan's customarily stylish prose.... A book that will get people reading--and talking., Capacious.... Caledonian Road is wildly readable, brimming with energy and filled with enjoyable contemporary detail. Brash, prating characters stalk its pages, demanding attention and understanding; yet, in Andrew O'Hagan's redistributive narrative justice, the most heartfelt, and heart-rending, moments tend to involve those whose fate is to lurk on the periphery., It's a masterpiece. Not only his biggest book, but the best and biggest novel anyone has written in this country for a long time. I wolfed it down in three long sessions. Flynn is such a powerfully complete portrait of a person, a wonderfully rounded and compelling character and I deeply felt for him. And the comedy! Not just line by line but page by page are laugh-out-loud funny. Amazing. Caledonian Road is extraordinary.
