Summary

Meet Zuri, our sophisticated pagan ancestor as she lives her life in Christchurch in 2200 BC. It is the Neolithic period and the first civilization in Britain along the mystical River Avon, an area called 'Avonlands'. Her rituals and mythology embrace nature to a degree that we no longer understand. Her tribe is, contrasted with the wealthy pensioners, the oldest population in the UK, who now live where her hut once stood. Most have abandoned the dirty air of London for the picturesque Dorset coast. This is a social history of two tribes living in the mysterious region of Stonehenge, with today's pensioner tribe living to twice Zuri's age, growing overweight and unfit, and when, not idly writing books, overwhelming the NHS
