Colin Smith es un joven de clase obrera que vive en un barrio de Nottingham con su madre viuda, el amante de esta y sus tres hermanos pequeños. Su vida no es ejemplar, pero lo será aún menos cuando robe una panadería y acabe en un reformatorio. Una vez allí, se aficiona a correr y, gracias a sus cualidades como atleta, obtiene unos privilegios que no desea para sí. Hasta que finalmente tendrá que elegir entre el éxito como héroe deportivo y la soledad del corredor de fondo. En este volumen, con nueva traducción de Mercedes Cebrián, se reúne una descarnada colección de relatos centrados en el sombrío aislamiento de la clase obrera, en los pequeños delitos que se cometen para salir adelante y en la profunda ira que domina a los habitantes de las ciudades industriales, abocadas a la desesperación. Una realidad que sigue hoy tan vigente como lo fuera hace más de medio siglo.
