Cucumber Man by David Nobbs
It is 1957. The Suez Crisis has been and gone. Henry Pratt has completed his National Service and is putting his unsuccessful career as Thurmarsh's cub journalist behind him. Leaving Yorkshire, he's taking on a new role and a new challenge - working for the Cucumber Marketing Board in Leeds. Stumbling through the fifties, sixties, seventies and eighties, Henry Pratt accumulates jobs, marriages and children on the way as he embarks on a touching, painful and hilarious switchback ride through a divided Britain.
David Nobbs was born in Orpington, the only son of a schoolmaster. He has written many successful novels. Several of which he has adapted for television (The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin and The Life and Times of Henry Pratt). He has also written the television series Rich Tea and Sympathy, The Glamour Girls and Fairly Secret Army. He lives in North Yorkshire.
