Publisher's Synopsis
"A novel about a certain time, a certain place, and a certain generation, which as yet has no name, only a face." Charting the rise of the internet music scene of the late-aughties, English Manners Club tells the story of Anna and a boy named Irael, two young literary misfits who are unaware that they're renting out the same mansion. Each mistakes the other to be the ghost haunting their abode as they fall in love. While a radiant new music scene blossoms from their house shows, outside interests threaten to intrude. Anna and Irael struggle to stay real, even as they discover themselves to be the essence of the unreal.
