Description
The paperback outing of an acclaimed publishing first, reproducing 300 pages of handwritten manuscript by comedy legend Andy Hamilton
- 'I raced through this unique, epic tale about history, memory and speaking your truth. Fabulous' Daily Mail
- 'A glorious comic novel, a brilliant satire, an art work and a historical document. Never has the word “readable” meant more. Never has the word “manuscript” been more literal. Hand-written, rib-tickling, spine-tingling and heart-wringing. Uniquely brilliant' Stephen Fry
- 'From beginning to end, a joy to read, crossings-out and all. A tale of mingled tragedy and comedy, disaster and triumph ... A handwritten love letter to a woman we never meet, that's also a love letter to humanity' Neil Gaiman
