Two men with a passion for vinyl create a society for the appreciation of records. Their aim is simple: to elevate the art of listening by doing so in forensic detail. The society enjoys moderate success in the local pub, The Half Moon, with enthusiasts drawn to the initial promise of a weekly gathering.However, as the club gains popularity, one founder's uncompromising dogma results in a schism and a counter group forms. Then the arrival of a young woman called Alice further fractures the unity of the vulnerable society. As rifts form, Magnus Mills brilliantly examines the surreal nature of ordinary lives.
