A collection of humourous stories; some true, some not
This book is not for the prude nor for the unimaginative, as it highlights the shortcomings and hypocrisy of the human race in sharp contrast to the future offered by "The Guv'nor." The meaning of life - a tall order, even for an intellectual to fathom - was a 'doddle', surely, for "The Guv'nor"? He had to know Why was he so reluctant to divulge the secret?
Anthony Sharp's book is funny, if politically 'incorrect'. The story might well have been the nightmare of more than one honest Englishman. A glimpse of the future, inverted prejudices and a struggle for power.
Amanda Davidson's marriage to Carl Himmler, a handsome and dynamic young businessman from Hamburg, is a huge success. Despite his profession as a heavy arms manufacturer, Carl's nature and philosophy of life bear little resemblance to his historic namesake Heinrich Himmler - the loathsome director of Hitler's death camps. For twelve happy years, Amanda looks after her two loving children and her thriving London boutique while calming an ever-watchful Jewish father in New York. But when a serious threat to Carl's business and his whole family presents itself, Heads of State, police and the secret services face a dilemma fraught with danger, whilst everyone's skills are put to the test. Yet the world is hardly finished with Amanda who is to endure an outrageous attack upon her by the late addition to her brood, a deviant son called Peter. As her remarkable strength of character and will to recover manifests itself, her elder son, Adam, publishes his close-to-home novel and presents her with a signed copy at a special party in her honour... A happy ending to a family affair involving change of identity and nail-biting drama.
This is the true story of a professional musician whose colourful, if chequered career has enabled him to review the past with a relaxed, philosophical eye. Anthony Sharp attended his local grammar school, and on an organ scholarship went up to Oxford where he shared tutorials with fellow Londoner, the late Dudley Moore - who rose to international fame and fortune while Tony drifted from gig to gig, clutching at straws and failing to capitalize on his achievements. Written with delightful candour and wit, he traces the years from choirboy days, school and university, through work and close encounters with the famous and 'infamous', to life in a Spanish village and the dubious pleasures of altercations with the wicked over his Steinway grand piano.
The world has reached its crisis point over religion when the magical President Obama seizes the opportunity to join His Royal Highness, Prince Charles and Lewis Hamilton on their exciting mission to set up a new global movement to embrace nations of all creeds and those with none - except for the most important of all: HUMANITY. The President's drive and diplomatic skills even succeed in bringing on board the recalcitrant President of Iran and finally the most wanted man on earth: Osama Bin Laden. Who will be the one to upset the apple-cart?
