Description
Enter the wild and weird world of Tom Fourgs Ten stories of the unexpected - destined to become a classic cult collection New fiction on the road from odd to oddball Includes the hit Osim Bin Laden is Hiding in My Liver "Thomas Fourgs lives by a pond which is home to his unruly parrot frogs. His parrot frogs started getting chopsy when he tossed the first of his corkscrews into their home, the pond. The second corkscrew followed it in a short while later. The third, Thomas' favourite, was hurled into the shrubbery bordering the pond. If his corkscrews weren't handy he'd be less likely to persist with his constant drunkenness (so he hoped). However, by the time the fifth corkscrew hit the water the parrot frogs had become surly, loutish and loudmouthed. This recently intensified when Thomas, in despair, tipped three-quarters of a bottle of brandy over the lily pads. Now the parrot frogs may occasionally be seen staggering in and about the pond, yelling and belching, annoying every fish and insect, creeping and crawling on their amphibian knees, while the author sits cross-legged by the pond, listening to his parrot frogs and contemplating the essence of Spookfish."
