The Napoleon of Notting Hill

Set in the late 20th century, the novel features Quin, who ascends to the throne of England after a line of mundane kings. To combat the monotony, he issues a decree for the populace to don extravagant costumes. Wayne, inspired by the king's edict, seeks to foster local pride and enthusiasm. This humorous narrative unfolds with a blend of adventure and satire, reflecting a government indifferent to its citizens, reminiscent of themes found in Fahrenheit 451.
