Beschreibung

This edition is accompagned by 34unpublished illustrations.
The novel, narrated by Englishman J., tells of a boat trip along the Thames, with his friends George and William Samuel Harris. The three, together with the dog Montmorency, travel for days, they cross the English countryside and live unexpected and amusing adventures. The trip is dotted with a series of comic gags on the joys and pains of life on the boat, combined with funny digressions that invent stories in their own right, in the best style of English humor. All this seasoned with realistic descriptions of the regions crossed by the three friends and brief notations of philosophy for the non-professionals.

    In the suspenseful and darkly funny sequel to Don’t Point that Thing at Me, married life only compounds the danger facing art dealer Charlie Mortdecai. 
     
    Art dealer and degenerate aristocrat Charlie Mortdecai has gotten himself into a spot of trouble over a certain stolen Goya. In order to save himself, he must marry the beautiful, sex-crazed and very, very rich Johanna Krampf. The fly in the ointment is that Johanna thinks nothing of involving poor Charlie in her life-threatening schemes such as monarch-assassination, heroin smuggling and - worst of all - survival training at a college for feminist spies.
