Book by Burgess Anthony
Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
Janet Shirley's husband is special. He has a 'photographic brain', which wins the modest used-car salesman and his wife an easy fortune on England's most popular high-stakes TV quiz show. Recklessly, the Shirleys revel in new-found affluence, and locquacious Janet obligingly provides details of first-class travel, luxury hotels, mink coats, a bit of adultery and - ultimately, outrageously, hilariously - not entirely accidental death.
Anthony Burgess is the author of more than fifty works of fiction and nonfiction, among them A Clockwork Orange, A Dead Man in Deptford, the critically acclaimed Byrne, and One Man's Chorus.
