The Household Tips of the Great Writers

Like Mrs Beeton, but with metaphors! A bumper omnibus edition of Mark Crick's three sparklingly funny books of literary pastiche. GREAT WRITER'S HOUSEHOLD TIPS covers all your household needs, indoors and outdoors, from pruning a rose bush with Pablo Neruda to mending a dripping tap with Jean-Paul Sartre. Throwing a tea-party? Irvine Welsh has the recipe for the perfect chocolate cake, though that's not all he's cooking. Brilliant, hilarious, and always pitch-perfect, Crick's wonderful books of literary pastiche will inform and entertain the most erudite of householders.
