Pagford is, seemingly, an English idyll, with a cobbled market square and an ancient abbey, but what lies behind the pretty facade is a town at war. Rich at war with poor, teenagers at war with their parents, wives at war with their husbands, teachers at war with their pupils...Pagford is not what it first seems. And the empty seat left by Barry on the parish council soon becomes the catalyst for the biggest war the town has yet seen. Who will triumph in an election fraught with passion, duplicity and unexpected revelations? A big novel about a small town, The Casual Vacancy is J.K. Rowling's first novel for adults. It is the work of a storyteller like no other.Hide synopsis

Having read and loved the Harry Potter series, I was excited to read JK Rowling's experiment with another genre. I think the story could have been interesting, but I was so distracted by the plethora of profanity and unnecessary sexual details that I did not finish the book. Sorry, Ms Rowling; you ...

My kids and I live and breathe Harry Potter. This newest JK Rowling offering is a significant departure from your much-loved HP series. But it's been oft-stated that this is a book for adults. You'll find no wizards and wands here. In fact you will find detailed sex scene and plenty of vulgar words. ...

This much-anticipated 'book for grown-ups' was a dud. JK Rowling has done a disservice to "Country Village, UK" given her vast world-wide readership. It was just another dull story, of unhappy, unpleasant people being nasty to one another. I am so disappointed I could cry.
