| Description: |
Part-comedy, part-horror, part-satire, this is the surreal account of a family held captive in Scarfolk, a fictional town locked forever in the 1970s. Through public information posters, news reports, tourist brochures and other ephemera, the book discloses the dark secrets of Scarfolk and re-creates our most nightmarish childhood memories.. |
| Synopsis: |
"Scarfolk is a town in north-west England that did not progress beyond 1979. The entire decade of the 1970s loops ad infinitum. In Scarfolk children must not be seen OR heard, and everyone has to be in bed by 8 p.m. because they are perpetually running a slight fever..." Part-comedy, part-horror, part-satire, Discovering Scarfolk is the surreal account of a family trapped in the town. Through public information posters, news reports, books, tourist brochures and other ephermera, we learn about the darker side of childhood, school and society in Scarfolk. A massive cult hit online, Scarfolk re-creates with shiver-inducing accuracy and humour our most nightmarish childhood memories. |
