Former Prime Minister John Major takes a remarkable journey into his own unconventional family past to tell the richly colourful story of the British music hall. Music hall was one of the glories of Victorian England. Sentimental, vulgar, class-conscious, but always patriotic and on the side of the underdog, it held a mirror to the audiences’ hopes and fears - and sometimes the general absurdity of life. Vast, smoke-filled auditoriums were packed night after night in nearly every town and city in Britain.

WHEN M. JOHN FAYHEE first arrived in New Mexico's rugged Gila Country, he was a naïve 20-year-old who didn't know a javelina from an enchilada. Much has changed in the intervening half century.

Life is full of stupid shit. Some obvious, some maybe less so, but stupid shit all the same. And Old Man Brown has had enough. Join this grumpy but truth bomb-shipping Scottish pensioner as he shares his inimitable take on life and the idiotic things in it. Just don't complain about being offended if he says something not to your liking - you have the power to stop listening at any time, so like Nike says (when the cameras are off), just fucking do it.

I wrote three paperback original novels for Berkley under the pen name Jill Emerson, two of them in diary form, the third a presumed collaborative novel written in concert by the three viewpoint characters. These were fun to do and worked out well, and they led to Ronald Rabbit Is a Dirty Old Man. I riffed on the experience of my friend George Dickerson, who, like the novel's protagonist, had the magazine he was editing folded out from under him.

A tale of obsession, with an incredibly low budget. If Peter Benchley were to translate the works of Melville and Hemingway, this is how it might turn out. If he couldn’t afford a white whale. Or a marlin. Or a great white shark. If the only fish he could obsess about were, perhaps, a carp.
