Malcolm Bradbury oversize vintage Penguin, pages tanned, some scuffs on edges crease on covers, nice reading copy closer to the original for UK printing, red.remainder .dot top---Impossibly witty conversation that real people never have, The History Man is parity of conspicuously unconventional, studiously modern social science academia, imbued with the fashionably permissive attitudes of the 1960s. Set in the 1970's, The History Man is life as performance, "self-made actors on the social stage." To the extent that it skewers self-styled radicals who have since fallen out of fashion in academia, it retains its relevance in its skewering of academics who care more about themselves than their students.Revolving around promiscuous and radical Marxist tutor. --- The History Man by Malcolm Bradbury.
