Review

`Uproar is a lovely book, funny, clever, and a vivid reflection of the times. Beneath the entertaining surface, MacLeod had created a classic comic plot which takes the hero down through a broken marriage, a disintegrating career and a too-close acquaintance with the bottle, but emerges at the end into the sunlight. A story that is full of people like us, mostly at our worst, but sometimes at our best. I found it hugely satisfying.'

(Eric Wright )

Product Description

J. T. McLaughlin is a Professor of Economics who appears blessed until his wife of twenty-four years suddenly ups and leaves him. J. T. becomes despondent. At this point Zinger, a high-school chum and journalist, bursts upon the scene. Amidst the machinations of academia, passionate encounters at Catholic spas, and slanderous accusations of sexist, racist and homophobic behaviour, MacLeod creates an exhilarating romp through the pressing issues of the day.
