The Football Factory Headhunters England Away The Prison House

John King is an English novelist who has written a number of books which, for the most part, deal in the more rebellious elements driving the country’s culture. His stories carry strong social and political undercurrents and his debut The Football Factory, published in 1996, was an instant word-of-mouth success, selling around 300,000 copies in the UK. A high-profile film adaptation appeared in 2004. Directed by Nick Love and starring Danny Dyer, Dudley Sutton and Frank Harper, its UK DVD sales stand at nearly 2 million. Both novel and film attracted widespread media comment for their realism.

Headhunters and England Away – develop the themes of alienation and belonging to be found in The Football Factory. These three books form a loose trilogy with storylines found in The Football Factory and Headhunters converging in England Away. The Big Issue described Headhunters as: “Sexy, dirty, violent, sad and funny; in fact, it has just about everything you could want from a book on contemporary working-class life in London”.

The Prison House: The main character in the book is an Englishman, Jimmy Ramone, who has reached a crossroads in his life. After many months of drifting and drinking his way around Europe he finds himself incarcerated for two years in Seven Towers, a notorious prison in an unnamed south European country.
