The Illegible Bachelor

Résumé du livre

"We'd done the rehearsing, endured the twelve-hour flight to Tokyo and now here was show time at last. I looked across the stage and there he was - TV's artichoke man and respected poet Martin Newell all glammed up with lipstick, super-tight trousers - even a painted-on beauty spot -giving his all for an appreciative and surprisingly teeny audience. He had a hit album on his hands and needed some dodgy musicians . . . 'sounds like fun, count me in,' I said . . .Well it's never a dull moment with 'the alien' as he's affectionately known in Sensible Mansions. The cider stocks do become rapidly depleted during his visits but the garden will always look a lot better by the time he leaves. A national treasure - Gawd bless the alien." --
