Cops
Vendeur : Crappy Old Books, Barry, Royaume-Uni
Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : Used. In a world where the only thing more confusing than justice is the inexplicable allure of high-waisted trousers, Mark Baker?s 1985 masterwork, "Cops," emerges like a cat in a bowler hat?utterly unexpected yet somehow fitting in a bizarrely English way. Published by the illustrious Abacus, which is neither a mathematical tool nor a mystical creature, this volume invites you to unravel the enigma of law enforcement through the lens of a peculiar time when shoulder pads were not just a fashion statement but a lifestyle choice. Picture a time when the British police force was as much about tea breaks as it was about tackling crime. Baker, possibly inspired by a deep-seated obsession with both the complexities of the human psyche and the minimum wage of a constable, delves into the absurd underbelly of the policing world. What can you expect? Well, one could speculate about a thrilling ride of sirens and bureaucracy, though, knowing Baker, we might just end up with a lengthy discussion about the merits of custard creams versus digestives during stakeouts. The book promises a delightful blend of irony and insight, showcasing how the officers of the law are, perhaps, just as baffled by the rules they enforce as the average citizen is by the rules of cricket. "Cops" asks the age-old question: What happens when the protectors of society become the subjects of absurdity? It?s a veritable potpourri of musings that could fill a pub quiz or a particularly dull evening at home. Readers may find themselves pondering some of life?s biggest questions, such as: How do you catch a criminal when your biggest crime is forgetting your radio? Do police officers have to attend training courses on how to handle public disdain? What really happens during those long, lonely hours in the station?s break room? Is there an official handbook detailing how to master the art of making small talk with suspects? Can one develop a deep emotional connection with a set of handcuffs? With a sardonic wit that could rival a stand-up comic at The Comedy Store on a slow night, Baker crafts a narrative that feels less like a police procedural and more like an elaborate scheme to poke fun at the very essence of authority. The book floats between realms of dark humour and earnest reflection, while possibly offering readers a newfound appreciation for the individual quirks of those tasked with upholding the law, or at least trying not to trip over their own shoelaces while doing so. Condition: This used copy of "Cops," as sold by Crappy Old Books, embodies the spirit of the ?80s. Expect pages that crackle like a vinyl record from the same era, along with the occasional coffee stain that adds a certain je ne sais quoi. The cover features a design that could only be described as "what were they thinking?"?a veritable time capsule of questionable artistic choices. It?s a book that has lived, breathed, and perhaps even been accidentally dropped in a puddle, which serves only to enhance its character. So why not take a chance on "Cops"? It might just furnish you with the kind of insights that make you the life of the dinner party?or at least provide a solid excuse to linger longer by the cheese platter while you regale your friends with tales of Baker?s peculiar take on policing. After all, in a world filled with meticulously curated bookshelves, isn?t it refreshing to embrace something wonderfully, unapologetically flawed? Dive into the delightful chaos that is "Cops," and who knows, you might just find yourself chuckling at the absurdities of life and law enforcement alike. THIS BOOK BEARS THE CRAPPY OLD BOOKS STAMP. IF THAT IS UNDESIRABLE PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS. THE STAMP MARKS WHICH IS USUALLY TO THE FRONT AND BACK INNER PAGES SAYS SOLD BY CRAPPY OLD BOOKS WITH WEB SITE URL. IT IN NO WAY DEMINISHED FROM THE READING. IF YOU WANT A PRISTINE BOOK, PLEASE FIND ANOTHER BOOK IN BETTER CONDITION SOMEWHERE ELSE. N° de réf. du vendeur 2377
