This story is set in India, 1946. Ross Monroe is a boxer, a Catholic, an Anglo-Indian - part of the race that runs the administrative side of the Empire for the English. Light enough in skin to join the RAF during the war, after being demobbed he took up a post in the Indian railway, all the while knowing that boxing would take him to the next Olympics, and then to England and a career as a professional. Until a man called Skinner robs him first of his money, in a scam in the marketplace, and then of his identity, in the ring. In England, 2005, Owen Monroe thinks he has a lead on where Skinner is now - a novel he's found which tells the story of a young boxer, a Catholic, an Anglo-Indian, who works for the railways... v angličtine, brožovaná, 410 strán

The Sound of Laughter

Spisovatel: Kay Peter, Century 2006
Katalogové číslo: E4289

The Autobiography of Peter Kay. Peter Kay's unerring gift for observing the absurdities and eccentricities of family life has earned himself a widespread, everyman appeal. These vivid observations coupled with a kind of nostalgia that never fails to grab his audience's shared understanding, have earned him comparisons with Alan Bennett and Ronnie Barker. In his award winning TV series' he creates worlds populated by degenerate, bitter, useless, endearing and always recognisable characters which have attracted a huge and loyal following. In many ways he's an old fashioned kind of comedian and the scope and enormity of his fanbase reflects this. He doesn't tell jokes about politics or sex, but rather rejoices in the far funnier areas of life: elderly relatives and answering machines, dads dancing badly at weddings, garlic bread and cheesecake, your mum's HRT...His autobiography is full of this kind of humour and nostalgia, beginning with Kay's first ever driving lesson, taking him back through his Bolton childhood, the numerous jobs he held after school and leading up until the time he passed his driving test and found fame.... obal, tvrdá väzba, veľký formát, v angličtine, 270 strán
