"A gripping narrative . . . Ripple is an observant and self-
deprecating interpreter of both the lavish gallery of
characters and the ever-changing times/ Guardian
An epic of suburban life and a debut of staggering scope,
intimacy and warmth, It's All Right Now is the story of Tom
Ripple, an ordinary man living an ordinary life. From a north
London suburb in the 1970s, we pursue and engage with
Ripple up to the present day, seeing through his own eyes a

becomes an anti-hero, all too aware of his own
ordinariness, through his ribald sense of humour and an
inevitable clumsiness in his attempts at emotional
connection with others.
'Satisfying and beautiful . . . Chadwick is excellent at
catching speech patterns and personal traits; many of
his characters are repulsively or absurdly fascinating,
and Ripple's vexed relationship with his children is
masterfully...

Tom is the novel's great success. His character is
realised so completely that it is easy to forget the memoir is
