«Gridlock» is Ben Elton's satirical novel, published by Penguin in paperback (400 pages, in English).
Deborah and Geoffrey know how a city can die suffocated by traffic and pollution, in the name of freedom and oil. But those who finished off the city can also finish them off. A satire on car culture, industrial progress and its contradictions.
