Hard Cover. Etat : Near Fine. Near Fine. First UK Edition. NON price-clipped DJ [£11.95] in new mylar, clean, crisp, minor edge wear. Pages clean, unmarked, binding tight and square. Red boards, gilt lettering, bottom spine edge lightly bumped. This book won the Authors' Club First Novel Award and has been followed by two further novels, The Long Shadows and A Funny Old Year. According to the author in an interview with Lidia Vianu it revolves round the idea of joke-telling. It is said that the effectiveness of a joke depends on the way the teller delivers it: 'It's the way you tell them' is an often-heard dictum. In using that title I also hoped to suggest that the 'hero' of the novel had not found the right way to tell his enemies what he thought of them, had in fact been corrupted and assimilated by them. Critics who disliked the novel still thought the way I told the jokes in it was acceptable. All books are in my smoke free & climate controlled shop and will have qualities and/or flaws described.

Paperback. Etat : New. Alan Brownjohn writes about experiences from childhood on into the present, sometimes in precisely dated poems. He is perennially concerned with the impact of momentous events and changes on day-to-day life; his acute sense of detail recently earned him the soudriquet, in the TLS, of 'the doyen of the diurnal'. In this new collection, he juxtaposes religious belief and unbelief, transmutes quirky social observation into poetry, indulges jokes and fantasies, and praises - or commemorates - friends. The poem which provides the title of the collection is an unconventional and mysterious celebration of his life; for which, in the words of Sean O'Brien, his poetry shows 'an undiminished appetite'.…

Paperback. Etat : New. About Alan Brownjohn's last individual volume of poems, Ludbrooke and Others (2010), Sean O'Brien wrote in the Sunday Times, 'If you don't find yourself laughing at and with Ludbrooke, the chances are that you're a Puritan or dead or both.' Brownjohn's new book, intriguingly titled A Bottle, is one of his most varied and resourceful to date, featuring not only characteristically funny and entertaining poems and mysterious, gripping narratives (the title poem) but also moving tributes and elegies, love poems, and some absorbing social observation. It will confirm his reputation as 'one of the most reliably enjoyable of writers.'.…
