Recensione:
L'autore:
Praise for Michael Pearce:
‘Pearce takes apart ancient history and reassembles it with beguiling wit and colour’ Sunday Times
‘As ever, Owen is wordly-wise, droll, and eminently at home in his adopted city’ Sunday Times
‘Enjoyable ... original and charming’ Independent
‘The Mamur Zapt’s sly, irreverent humour continues to refresh the parts others seldom reach’ Observer
Michael Pearce was raised in Anglo-Egyptian Sudan, where his fascination for language began. He later trained as a Russian interpreter but moved away from languages to follow an academic career, first as a lecturer in English and the History of Ideas, and then as an administrator. Michael Pearce now lives in London and is best known as the author of the award-winning Mamur Zapt books.
