Paperback. Condición: New. We've all been there: you leave the cinema, you're buzzing, you were there.in that film with those characters. But what if you see those characters, relive those scenes, not in your head, but in reality?When a mysterious cult horror movie from the 1970s pops up on YouTube, Ben simply has to see it. He…has to see it, partly because it's a horror film but mostly, because it stars Margot Kidder. Ben asks his girlfriend, Lena, to watch it with him. She does. Driveshaft, however, is no ordinary film and before they know it, Ben and Lena are trapped within its murky and disturbing world. Luckily, they meet fellow Driveshaft victims, Frank and Katherine. The foursome decide that the only way to rid themselves of the Driveshaft curse is through exorcism. Part film-script, part novel, Driveshaft is a wry tribute to the wackier side of 70s cinema. It's a bumpy ride where the real, and the not so real, collide. So, if you like the 70s, horror movies, cars with a mind of their own, and Margot Kidder then jump in by all means, but make sure you don't belt up.

Paperback. Condición: New. Poor George has just about had it with the publishing world, lunches, infidelities and a lifetime of a right bunch of comedian wannabes whose utter tosh (think sports biogs by 'celebrities') he's practically (OMG, 'practically' is as bad as 'literally'' and 'like'. and 'totally') had to rewrite. What i…f he's bothered to sit down and produce his own oeuvre. A proper book! And what if it is a kiss 'n' tell? If it's true?How would he get it published? While he's looking for a way, one of his stocking-fillers gets caught up in a bidding war, which ought to be good news for him. But really isn't. Move over Spitting Image, Private Eye and. Alexander Pope and Jonathan Swift. Any character who pitches from Mr Grylls's pen across his pages is at risk of being skewered. In the nicest possible way. An exquisitely written, erudite and hilarious satire in the finest vintage tradition.

Hardback. Condición: New. Hardback ed. Tender, nostalgic, romantic, funny, absurd, magically real, speculative, ironic, nightmarish, entertaining and elegantly rendered.these stories span a century of Man's consciousness.Once, a man might be a Gatsby chasing his girl half-way around the world, the captain of a football World Cup… winning side, a raging Picasso bull in a mythical maze refusing to yield lover or art till his last mortality-defiant egotistic gasp. Straightforward enough choices, dreams, behaviour.Suddenly he is man interrupted, underwhelmed, overworked, ridiculed, young, rock-solid or unreliable family man, father, husband, friend; his freedom evaporates: he's globe-trotting inbox-fatigued nonsense-hearing corporate, military civil-serving quiet ministry of Everyman. He's so exasperated he might just run away and prop up a bar, or contemplate mild treachery just to get by, and he's put-upon, as he zigzags across #TimesUp, political correctness, game theory, oh. and. the women in his life. Now here he stands staring down the barrel of the 21st Century - he's superman, he's transhuman, he's disassembling, he's nearly done for.or is he.
