Book Synopsis

A novel about life, love and a pig called Estrakhan

Harry Hill''s debut novel is a brilliantly funny adventure through a surreal world, where pigs might not fly, but they can get their own newspaper column and reality TV show.

When Harry''s offered a gig at a gonk factory in Leeds, he leaps at the chance. It''s the perfect opportunity to get away from his flatmate Prince Edward, and the twenty pygmies renting space in his sock drawer. Little does Harry realise that this decision will lead him on a fantastical journey, into a world where nothing is quite what it seems...

Now with new material - including an alternative ending - Flight From Deathrow is a hugely entertaining and imaginative shaggy pig story from one of our finest and best-loved comedians.



Trade Review
** 'Hill's delightful brand of stand-up comedy is a great success, both live and on television. In translating it to his debut novel, he has retained the core elements: surreal non sequiturs that traverse the outer reaches of unconnectedness, running gags, and shaggy-dog stories that each produce a litter of shaggy puppies... So marvel once more at the bizarre fecundity of Hill's imagination...' OBSERVER
