The Long Week-End
The Long Week-End is a social history of interwar Britain, written by Robert Graves and Alan Hodge. It was first published in 1940, just after the end of the period it treats.
Their story covers a wide range of popular and social themes, including politics, business, science, religion, art, literature, fashion, education, popular amusements, domestic life, sexual relations, and much else. [1] It has come to be regarded as a classic of its kind, though not so famous as Graves's book Good-Bye to All That.
The Long Week-End has gone through several reprints, the latest in 1994.
