Book excerpt: Utta Drivel Short Stories is a collection of comic short stories read out at Creative Writing evening classes to much laughter. They cover a wide range of subjects. From a neolithic sex strike, to the ancient Egyptians Lotatotty & Obsequiops, to philosophers meeting at the Fill the Greek, the Parthenon canteen. From an abattoir wedding, to the first Russian to laugh in 200 years, to the Knights of the Round Hovel. There are longer short stories about the fun to be had working in the Falkland Islands & Hong Kong. Other short stories tell of rocky horror in Transylvania, of banned fox hunts switching to hunting smokers & sheep taking over Wales. In a different vein, staff in a St Trinians-type school hold an emergency meeting & when a man's private parts suddenly drop off, he considers having a vagina fitted by a quick-fit fanny fitter. And there is a pirate treasure story with Midshipman BraceYourself and a science fiction one that features Startifartlast, a mystic Chinese Constipate.

Book excerpt: Utta Drivel Short Stories Three is a collection of humorous short stories. It follows on from his first two books of stories read out at Creative Writing evening classes to much laughter. They cover a wide range of subjects and human experience through the ages. This is apparent from some of the evocative titles: Sod Dolly, I Want Jolene; Boiling the Dead Owl; Walfumstow Will Goes to The Crusades; and There's Someone Left in Midsomer! The subjects range from Robin Hoodie's downright-pissed merry men to hired donkeys in the Valley of the Kings where Ramses the Great keeps trying to mount Nefertiti. From being charged by an elephant on an overland safari up through Africa to a religious painting in Bolivia that shows a butch-looking angel in all-in wrestler turquoise jackboots and red football socks. Other stories include a self-appointed Breast Historian, grumpy Romans on Hadrian's Wall and a retired couple at the pub growing old grapefully. Enjoy...

From reading the Lumberjack News in a tree surgeon's waiting room, to the disappointing progress of the lady researching EU condom size standardisation, to the Smethwick Hairdresser Wars and their drive-by blow-drys. These stories are interspersed with longer short stories about working in Nigeria, a fun night at the Savoy and imagining that the Victorians invented all of British history. Further short stories ask why you can talk about hubby but not wifey, why you don't get locum teachers, session doctors or supply musicians and whether you become a Master of Wine once you've drunk 10,000 bottles.
Download or read book Utta Drivel Too written by Alan Pinkett and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-03-31 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alan Pinkett took up writing for the first time just a few years ago. He found he quite liked it and said he'd do some more if you're not careful. The result of that was his first comic novel, Utta Drivel, entered for the Commonwealth Writers' Prize. He is now pleased to present its successor, Utta Drivel Too. It describes the laughter-filled lives of friends Wilfric, Boothroyd & Utta Drivel and their surreal comic adventures when their normal existence is periodically deflected by outside events. These include increasingly frequent attacks instigated by a man sworn to be Wilfric's enemy - a one-time Israeli landscape painter by the name of Mori Arty... *** An audaciously satirical work in which the author's wit will make you laugh out loud.

Download or read book Utta Drivel Goes Forth written by Alan Pinkett and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-07-16 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Utta Drivel Goes Forth is a comic novel that follows the lives of laid-back entrepreneur Wilfric & his 2 friends. He is 1600-odd years-old, which gives him a unique view of history. His get-togethers with walking disaster Boothroyd & eccentric patriot Utta Drivel involve much laughter. Their lives and sparkling conversations cover a wide spectrum. From a Falkland Islands folk club to a virgin man who'd have burst out of a pair of the Pope's erection straps to the afterlife: would you find Alfred the Great arguing with Alexander the Great as to who was the greatest? And whether old people have to give up sex when they go into care homes - there can't be many that give you that much assistance. Following a visit to the London Olympic Park, the friends' lives become interspersed with attacks from a man who accuses Boothroyd of getting his sister pregnant. To stop this, they trap the man while he is burglaring a billionaire's mansion and reveal the surprising identity of the real father.

Book excerpt: Utta Drivel is a comic novel that follows the lives of laid-back entrepreneur Wilfric and his two friends. Wilfric is 1600-odd years-old, which gives him a unique view of history. His get-togethers with walking disaster Boothroyd and eccentric patriot Utta Drivel always involve much laughter. Their lives cover a wide spectrum. From an Israeli landscape painter by the name of Mori Arty to the use of bonsai whales in garden ponds. From a naïve Catholic priest called Father Thousands to EU regulations requiring French windows to be made in France. From a Middle-aged Folk's Home to a conman called Big One O'Really. And whether funfairs are just a chance for 13-year-old girls to meet gypsies. As life goes by, Wilfric increasingly feels he is being watched. He eventually discovers who by, but not why. That is only resolved when they try to intercept him, resulting in an exciting canal barge chase. An audaciously satirical work in which the author's wit will make you laugh out loud.
Download or read book Utta Drivel Free written by Alan Pinkett and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-10-20 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Utta Drivel Free is a comic novel that follows the life of Wilfric and his friends Boothroyd and Utta Drivel. Wilfric is 1600-odd years-old, a longevity that can make for some interesting takes on history. Meeting up with walking disaster Boothroyd and the wonderfully eccentric patriot Utta Drivel leads to much laughter. Their sparkling conversations cover many interesting ideas. Are 10 commandments enough to cover 7 deadly sins? Why were typists ever needed - you wouldn't get a monk to do your handwriting for you, after all... But laid-back entrepreneur Wilfric has managed to make enemies in mystical Glastonbury after setting up a business there. This upset the Glastonbury Underworld and they took out a contract on him. The friends' lives become interspersed with attacks from two incompetent New Age hippies - Loco Chanel, a militant aromatherapist, and her mad partner, Ossie the Osteopath. An audaciously satirical work in which the author's wit will make you laugh out loud.

Book Synopsis The Ministry for the Future by : Kim Stanley Robinson
Download or read book The Ministry for the Future written by Kim Stanley Robinson and published by Orbit. This book was released on 2020-10-06 with total page 579 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ONE OF BARACK OBAMA’S FAVORITE BOOKS OF THE YEAR “The best science-fiction nonfiction novel I’ve ever read.” —Jonathan Lethem "If I could get policymakers, and citizens, everywhere to read just one book this year, it would be Kim Stanley Robinson’s The Ministry for the Future." —Ezra Klein (Vox) The Ministry for the Future is a masterpiece of the imagination, using fictional eyewitness accounts to tell the story of how climate change will affect us all. Its setting is not a desolate, postapocalyptic world, but a future that is almost upon us. Chosen by Barack Obama as one of his favorite books of the year, this extraordinary novel from visionary science fiction writer Kim Stanley Robinson will change the way you think about the climate crisis. "One hopes that this book is read widely—that Robinson’s audience, already large, grows by an order of magnitude. Because the point of his books is to fire the imagination."―New York Review of Books "If there’s any book that hit me hard this year, it was Kim Stanley Robinson’s The Ministry for the Future, a sweeping epic about climate change and humanity’s efforts to try and turn the tide before it’s too late." ―Polygon (Best of the Year) "Masterly." —New Yorker "[The Ministry for the Future] struck like a mallet hitting a gong, reverberating through the year ... it’s terrifying, unrelenting, but ultimately hopeful. Robinson is the SF writer of my lifetime, and this stands as some of his best work. It’s my book of the year." —Locus "Science-fiction visionary Kim Stanley Robinson makes the case for quantitative easing our way out of planetary doom." ―Bloomberg Green

Book Synopsis The Culture and Civilisation of Ancient India in HIstorical Outline by : D D Kosambi
Download or read book The Culture and Civilisation of Ancient India in HIstorical Outline written by D D Kosambi and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-09-01 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1965, The Culture and Civilisation of Ancient India in Historical Outline is a strikingly original work, the first real cultural history of India. The main features of the Indian character are traced back into remote antiquity as the natural outgrowth of historical process. Did the change from food gathering and the pastoral life to agriculture make new religions necessary? Why did the Indian cities vanish with hardly a trace and leave no memory? Who were the Aryans – if any? Why should Buddhism, Jainism, and so many other sects of the same type come into being at one time and in the same region? How could Buddhism spread over so large a part of Asia while dying out completely in the land of its origin? What caused the rise and collapse of the Magadhan empire; was the Gupta empire fundamentally different from its great predecessor, or just one more ‘oriental despotism’? These are some of the many questions handled with great insight, yet in the simplest terms, in this stimulating work. This book will be of interest to students of history, sociology, archaeology, anthropology, cultural studies, South Asian studies and ethnic studies.
