NOTES
Read by Nadia May
The Ballad of Peckham Rye is the wickedly farcical fable of a blue-collar town turned upside down. When the firm of Meadows, Meade & Grindley hires Dougal Douglas (a.k.a. Douglas Dougal) to do ?human research? into the private lives of its workforce, they are in no way prepared for the mayhem, mutiny, and murder he will stir up.

Druce, unsuspecting Managing Director. This is Dame Muriel Spark at her most devilishly piquant
