Noughties

Ben Masters is twenty-five years old. He was born in Northampton and studied English at Oxford University. He is currently working on a Ph.D. at Cambridge University. Noughties is his first novel.

It's the last night. The moment it all ends. As Eliot and his friends wave goodbye to University - their education done with, the world calling - they must make a reckoning with everything that has gone by. Here it comes: the pints, the shots, the pubs, the clubs, the jokes, the snogs, the fumbles, the memories, the secrets, the lies told, the 3AM hard truths, the bubble bursting, the tearing up of everything, the start and rush of the rest of your life.
