Ageing Disgracefully: Short Stories about Disreputable Old People

De (autor): Colin Cotterill


NEW SECOND EDITION

16 Colin Cotterill illustrated short stories first published in 2009

INCLUDES THE DR. SIRI STORY, HAS ANYONE SEEN MRS. LIGHTSWITCH?

This delightful collection of short stories takes a humorous look at the lives of people who have passed the age of sixty and are still behaving very, very naughtily. The collection takes us from England to Asia with stops in Australia and the United States and it proves the point that disgusting old people are to be found just about everywhere. We enter the troubled minds of murderers, bank robbers, practical jokers, serial killers, perverts and just regular old liars all of whom are old enough to know better. You'll doubtless recognize people you know and be forced to admit to a few wiles of your own.

The stories are:
Gran Larceny
A Night on the Tiles
Jack Wong Has a Rare Moment of Lucidity
Tart
The One Legged Marathon Runner of 12B Wildebeest Crescent
The Inside Job
Has Anyone Seen Mrs. Lightswitch?
Fanta Man
Playing Grand Theft Auto III With Death
It's a Dog's Life (In Four Short Acts)
Ode to a Siam Square Pizza
Life as a Torreja
Collecting Old Footprints
A Slightly Embellished True Story from the Gulf of Siam
Coconuts
Forked

With a keen a keen eye for human foibles and a wicked sense of humor, Colin has collected and illustrated the colorful lives of elders found along his journey from his English home to his new home in Thailand with stops in Australia, the US and Laos along the way.
