Description
In the year 2000 it seemed nothing would change in this free-and-easy land, but the narrator witnessed the last beating of the 24 Hour Party drum. Featuring original line illustrations by the author, this surreally comic and immersive novel is a dreamlike snapshot of life in Europe just two decades ago: the book shines a lurid light on a world that's difficult to recognise today.

Media Reviews
A crucial text to understand Europe's hidden reverse. Loud and Quiet
This book is an important slice of social and cultural history ... Richard Foster is the greatest thing to come out of Accrington since the construction of the M66. John Doran
England's least conformist culture writer serves up an anti-memoir of a brief - previously untold - moment in Great Britain's shared double Dutch history. Millennium, immigration, utopia, work, weirdness - and barely a tulip in sight. Fergal Kinney
