From Euston Bear to Gandalf the Greggs - meet the unfortunate collection of overlooked literary siblings you never knew existed...
Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
The Fence is a quarterly satirical magazine based in Soho, London. Set up in 2019, it offers a mixture of investigations, features, fiction and comic shorts. The staff writers are Séamas O'Reilly, Fergus Butler-Gallie, Kieran Morris, John Phipps and Charlie Baker. Their articles have been syndicated by major national newspapers, including the Guardian and The Times.
Literature is more than adequately served with great, well-rounded, complex heroes and villains. But most people aren't like that. So this book is a chronicle of that silent, strange majority who have been overlooked by the corpus of the Western canon. It's a collection of the weird, the pedestrian, the uninteresting and the unpublishable - a list of those younger and elder siblings of the great figures who stalk the literary dreamscape, who, until now, were ever destined to linger in their shadows.
Meet the likes of Euston Bear - currently living off Burger King wrapper sandwiches after ending up at the wrong station. Walter Wonka - a Kettering dentist with a phobia of dwarves. Gandalf the Greggs - beardy, pastry-covered street wizard. The Honourable Jeremy Dracula - younger brother of the Count. Vegetarian.
These sh*t literary siblings have long-deserved their place in the sun and now, at long last, they finally have.
