Flamboyant tycoon Sir Jack Pitman has an idea. Since most\ntourists are too lazy and unlettered to travel from landmark to\nlandmark, why not simplify things and shrink all of England to the\nsize of a theme park?
\n
\n
Unfortunately, Pitman turns out to be right. Located on the Isle\nof Wight, his reconstituted \“England, England\” is everything you\nimagined the original to be, but cleaner, friendlier, and more\nefficient. That is, until the King (the real King, on contract to\nSir Jack, living with the rest of the Royal Family in a scaled-down\nversion of Buckingham Palace) is suspected of sexual harassment, a\nsmuggling ring begins to wreak havoc with the island economy, and\nRobin Hood and his Merrie Men decide to unionize.
\n
\n
In true Barnes style,_England, England_is a savage but\noutrageously funny examination of the search for authenticity and\ntruth in a fabricated world.
