Biographie de l'auteur :
When his endlessly capricious wife Eva receives plane tickets for the family to visit Auntie Joan and Uncle Wally in Atlanta, Wilt knows only one thing - that nothing could entice him to fly three thousand miles over the water, and especially not two rotund Americans with more money than sense. What better way to escape and find equilibrium then to embark on a walking tour? Just Wilt, the countryside, and an ill-judged bottle of whiskey...
Meanwhile, Eva finds her plans to inherit Joan and Wally's fortune slipping away faster than her sanity, thanks to a combination of sinister teenage quadruplets with foul mouths, and her unexpected role as lead suspect in a drug-trafficking plot.
Outrageous, darkly comic, and packed with calamity on top of calamity, Tom Sharpe's latest episode of Wilt's misadventures is a razor-sharp farce that will delight fans both old and new.
Tom Sharpe was born in 1928 and educated at Lancing College and Pembroke College, Cambridge. He did his national service in the Marines before going to South Africa in 1951, where he did social work before teaching in Natal. He had a photographic studio in Pietermaritzburg from 1957 until 1961, and from 1963 to 1972 he was a lecturer in History at the Cambridge College of Arts and Technology.
He is the author of sixteen bestselling novels, including Porterhouse Blue and Blott on the Landscape which were serialised on television, and Wilt which was made into a film. In 1986 he was awarded the XXIIIème Grand Prix de l'Humour Noir Xavier Forneret and in 2010 he received the inaugural BBK La Risa de Bilbao Prize. Tom Sharpe died in June 2013 at his home in northern Spain

Description du livre Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Henry Wilt hat es nicht leicht: Seine Lehrerkollegen an der Schule rauben ihm den letzten Nerv, seine vier heftig pubertierenden Töchter tanzen ihm auf der Nase herum, und dann kommt seine Frau Eva auch noch auf die Idee, der verhassten Verwandtschaft in Amerika einen Besuch abzustatten. Das ist einfach zuviel auf einmal, und so ist Henry wild entschlossen, all diesen Zumutungen ein Ende zu bereiten. Dank einer perfiden List gelingt es ihm tatsächlich, seine Sippe in ein Flugzeug zu verfrachten und sie alleine auf die Reise zu schicken. Zutiefst beglückt über diese unverhoffte Freiheit schmiedet Henry Pläne - und entschließt sich, eine mehrtägige Wanderung durch das idyllische ländliche England zu unternehmen. Doch was als vergnüglicher Ausflug beginnt, entpuppt sich unversehens zu einem turbulenten Abenteuer, das Henry in die nicht immer nur feinen Kreise der englischen Provinz katapultiert. 288 pp. Deutsch.
