Publisher Description
When his endlessly capricious wife Eva receives plane tickets for the family to visit Auntie Joan and Uncle Wally in Atlanta, Wilt knows only one thing - that nothing could entice him to fly three thousand miles over the water, and especially not two rotund Americans with more money than sense. What better way to escape and find equilibrium then to embark on a walking tour? Just Wilt, the countryside, and an ill-judged bottle of whiskey...
Meanwhile, Eva finds her plans to inherit Joan and Wally's fortune slipping away faster than her sanity, thanks to a combination of sinister teenage quadruplets with foul mouths, and her unexpected role as lead suspect in a drug-trafficking plot.
Outrageous, darkly comic, and packed with calamity on top of calamity, Tom Sharpe's latest episode of Wilt's misadventures is a razor-sharp farce that will delight fans both old and new.
Customer Reviews
Wilt In Nowhere
Having been a massive fan of Tom Sharpe's work back in the 80's, I found myself having doubts about whether I had read this Wilt book before. Nevertheless I ploughed on, got to the end and felt let down. I remember reading his earlier work on the train and laughing out loud, much to the annoyance of other passengers. This book did not raise a titter!
