    About this ebook

    This is Kerouac in the Queen's English, if Her Majesty spoke with a foul mouth. Think Bukowski with a furled umbrella and a bowler hat.

    Book will be great for fans of:
    Kerouac
    The Beats in general
    Bukowski
    Ginsberg
    Those who are willing to read sophisticated/dirty literature

    This madcap, intensely moving book - containing some 30 quirky drawings by the author himself - can be a big hit with the 30 and younger crowd (but not only - we've got great blurbs from some of the most prominent British writers of our time).

    Great book for those interested in Great Britain and the class system.

    Tragic back story of glamorous young author who prophesied his own wedding morphing into a funeral.

      Read halfway through...skimmed the rest...not going to spend any more time on this. Overkill, a little bit was kinda amusing (almost), but 100+ pages of shit in the face? No thanks. (The same way I felt about Paul Beatty’s The Sellout.)
