About this listen
Ted Wallace is an old, sour, womanising, cantankerous, whisky-sodden beast of a failed poet and drama critic, but he has his faults too. Fired from his newspaper, months behind on his alimony payments, and disgusted with a world that undervalues him, Ted seeks a few months repose and free drink at Swafford Hall, the country mansion of his old friend Lord Logan.
But strange things have been going on at Swafford. Miracles. Healings. Phenomena beyond the comprehension of a mud-caked hippopotamus like Ted....

Fantastic!!!
With everything that is going on I needed something light hearted and found it in this audio book. Reminded me a lot of Oscar Wilde: a smart, hillarious and spicy look at society. Read by the wonderful Stephen Fry himself - perfect!!!

Wonderfully crafted and narrated story!
It was a comedy which made me re think a lot about my own time as a teenager and left me contemplating for the future. Not a lot of comedies that do that!
