Aprašymas
The greatest classics of world literature – as retold in the incomparable language of FranglaisDid you know that Jane Austen wrote a rip-roaring football yarn called Northanger Abbey v Mansfield Park? That Murder in the Cathedral is only one of a series of murder stories featuring Inspector T.S. Eliot?
That all Shakespeare's plots were combined in one earth-shattering play called The Two Henry V's of Verona? Or that a missing chapter from the Gideon Bible describes exactly how God came to create the first hotel?
Miles Kington gave the best years of his life (well, 1985 and 1986), reducing these masterpieces, and another forty or so like them, to a manageable size. He then translated them into Franglais, that fragrant language which combines the poetry of French with the directness of English. The result is a witty and joyous compendium of the classics, told as you’ve never quite heard them before.
Miles Kington was one of Britain's most renowned and best loved journalists. Born in County Down, he grew up in Wales and was educated in Scotland, which was all a big mistake as he was actually English. A presenter, playwright, polymath and wit, he wrote columns for The Times, the Independent, Punch and The Oldie. His other acclaimed titles include Someone Like Me and How Shall I Tell the Dog?.
