Download or read book Ricky Gervais Presents: The World of Karl Pilkington written by Karl Pilkington and published by Hyperion. This book was released on 2006-10-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this pithy and hilarious book, Karl Pilkington is in conversation with (the often bewildered) Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, the writers and stars of The Office and Extras, unwittingly outwitting even those comedy Goliaths as he struggles in vain to make sense of the world around him. Unencumbered by erudition and impervious to logic, Karl ambles down a heuristic path to enlightenment under the edifying influence of Ricky and Steve. His pronouncements on such diverse and contentious topics as population control, simian affairs within human society, the sartorial deliberations of solitary spacemen and how long you can stay alive with your head chopped off, are matched in the vehemence with which they are proposed only by the degree to which they are ill-conceived. Featuring Karl's original illustrations, imaginative scribblings and the best conversations of the world record-breaking Podcasts, The Ricky Gervais Show, this is a unique trip into the world of one of our most innovative thinkers, visionaries and prophets, or as Gervais knows him, "the funniest man I've ever met."

Book Synopsis Happyslapped by a Jellyfish by : Karl Pilkington
Download or read book Happyslapped by a Jellyfish written by Karl Pilkington and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2007-10-29 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of hilarious and compelling insights and anecdotes, diary entries, poems, "true" facts and cartoons on travel from The Rick Gervais Show’s unlikely star, Karl Pilkington. This is the travel book for people who don't particularly like travelling. It’s Pilkington with a suitcase, occasionally with his passport, more often with a bemused suspicion of anything vaguely exotic, and always with an observant eye for the disappointments, tedium, and general absurdity of being a tourist abroad and at home. From staring at Mount Vesuvius in case it erupts, to enduring the horrors of a Lanzarote nudist beach, to exploring the curiosities to be seen in the world's weirdest museum, Pilkington’s stories are told with his inimitable deadpan humor. And they’re always interspersed with fond reflections on life back in England, from Salford joy riders to what his girlfriend's mum and dad have for dinner on a Thursday (it's chops and veg, in case you're wondering).

Book Synopsis Dangerous Space by : Kelley Eskridge
Download or read book Dangerous Space written by Kelley Eskridge and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dangerous Space is a collection of seven seductive stories by Kelley Eskridge, whose novel Solitaire was a New York Times Notable Book, with an introduction by Geoff Ryman (author of Was and Air). The opening story, ?Strings, ? takes us to a world that tightly controls musical expression and values faithfulness to the canon above all else. By contrast, in the title novella, ?Dangerous Space, ? we see the full power of music unleashed to sexually enthralling as well as risky effect; original to the volume, this tale features Mars, the intriguing narrator of ?And Salome Danced? (short-listed for the Tiptree Award), on tour with an indie rock band on the verge of breaking out. Closing the volume, the moving, edgy ?Alien Jane? (a finalist for the Nebula Award and adapted for the SciFi Channel's Welcome to Paradox series) delves into the importance of pain for the human organism and finds hope in the most unlikely of places.
