A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Christopher Rush was born in St Monans and taught literature for thirty years a teacher of literature in Edinburgh. His books include A Twelvemonth and a Day and the highly acclaimed To Travel Hopefully. A Twelvemonth and a Day served as inspiration for the film Venus Peter, released in 1989. The story was also reworked by Rush in a simplified version in 1992 as a children's picture book, Venus Peter Saves the Whale, illustrated by Mairi Hedderwick, which won the Friends of the Earth 1993 Earthworm Award for the book published that year that would most help children to enjoy and care for the Earth.

Revue de presse

'Startlingly poetic - excellent' -- The Spectator

'This fictional autobiography does more than eulogize - Burgess is the only other novelist to pass this test' -- Times Literary Supplement

'A brilliantly witty and imaginative piece of writing' --Classic FM

'[It's] lewd, fun, touching and downright fascinating [. . .] The delicious characters and moments just keep on coming' --Bookbag

'Rush has a deep connection to Shapespeare's language, and brings it back to life in this witty account of an extraordinary life' --The Lady
