"This eclectic selection of pieces penned by the author Alex Pearl, won't fail to move and amuse. Many originally appeared on his website as well as the pages of The Huffington Post. This new updated edition includes more recent articles and is fully illustrated. Whether conveying the eccentricities of village cricket, the quirkiness of British advertising, or the surprising hospitality of hotels in North Korea, Pearl's prose will draw you in and leave you wanting to come back for more."
Hugh Salmon, playwright and co-founder of Lovereading.co.uk
"There is a randomness in this collection of tales but the thread which holds it together is Alex Pearl himself, giving an insight into life and family, fondness for his grandma, mention of his mother's secrets - dementia changed that - a touching in memoriam for his father, discussions about his forbears, as well as entertaining and amusing tales of his advertising, personal and work life.
"There are anecdotes about dislike of PE but fondness for cricket, love of cinema, (and memories of a talk by the late Donald Sutherland) and how he, Alex, was locked in a shop on Christmas Eve. Also, how he and his brother were both diddled out of money, and various illuminating stories."
