Sinossi
IL VOLUME DUE DELLE LEGGENDARIE MEMORIE DI SPIKE MILLIGAN È UN'OTTRAENTE ED ESILARANTE MEMORIA DELLA SECONDA GUERRA MONDIALE "Pirotecnica verbale brillante, battute buttate lì e aneddoti meravigliosi" Daily Mail "Disperatamente divertente, vivido, volgare" Sunday Times ______________ "Continua a parlare, Milligan. Penso di poterti far uscire per motivi mentali". "È così che ci sono finito, signore". "Non è vero?" Il secondo volume dei leggendari ricordi di Spike Milligan sulla vita da artigliere nella Seconda guerra mondiale vede il nostro eroe in battaglia nel Nord Africa, alla fine. Innanzitutto, c'è un'importante preparazione da fare: lunghi periodi di bighellonaggio ('Eravamo fermi vicino ai veicoli da un'ora e non era successo niente, ma succedeva spesso'), indurimento psicologico ('Se un uomo muore quando lo impicchi, continua a impiccarlo finché non si abitua') e vita pericolosa ('niente biancheria intima. '). Alla fine la battaglia per Tunisi è alle porte. _______________ 'Il libro più irriverente e spassoso sulla guerra che abbia mai letto' Sunday Express 'Milligan è il Grande Dio per tutti noi' John Cleese 'Il Padrino della Commedia Alternativa' Eddie Izzard 'Uno scrittore di commedie totalmente originale' Michael Palin 'Vicino per statura a Lewis Carroll e Edward Lear nella sua padronanza della profonda arte del nonsense' Guardian.

Informazioni sull'autore
A legendary and iconic figure, Spike Milligan was born at Ahmednagar in India in 1918. He received his first education in a tent in the Hyderabad Sindh desert and graduated from there, through a series of Roman Catholic schools in India and England, to the Lewisham Polytechnic. He then plunged into the world of Show Business, seduced by his first stage appearance, at the age of eight, in the nativity play of his Poona convent school. He began his career as a band musician, but became famous as a humorous scriptwriter and actor in both films and broadcasting. Over the course of his astonishing career, he wrote over eighty books of fiction, memoir, poetry, plays, cartoons and children's stories. He was the creator, principal writer and performer of the infamous Goon Show, and went on to become one of the greatest and most influential comedians of the twentieth century. Spike received an honorary CBE in 1992 and Knighthood in 2000. He died in 2002.
