Om denne bog

VOLUME FOUR OF SPIKE MILLIGAN''S LEGENDARY MEMOIRS IS A HILARIOUS, SUBVERSIVE FIRST-HAND ACCOUNT OF WW2

''Brilliant verbal pyrotechnics, throwaway lines and marvelous anecdotes'' Daily Mail

''Desperately funny, vivid, vulgar'' Sunday Times
______________

A voice is calling across the land, ''Bombardier Milligan.'' ''Bombadier Milligan is dead,'' I replied in a disguised voice. The voice replied, ''Then he''s going to miss his breakfast.''

The fourth volume of Spike Milligan''s legendary account of his time in the army during World War Two begins as he and his regiment land in sunny Italy in 1943 (''The ship touched the beach very gently, so gently I suspect it''s not insured'').

After a bout of Sandfly Fever, from which he soon recovers (''I''m ready to be killed again''), our plucky hero is piddled on by a farm dog (''Mussolini''s revenge?'') before forging his way inland towards the enemy and the sound of guns (''We''re getting near civilisation''), where matters suddenly take a dark turn (''I was not really me any more'') . . .

''The Godfather of Alternative Comedy'' Eddie Izzard

''A totally original comedy writer'' Michael Palin

''Close in stature to Lewis Carroll and Edward Lear in his command of the profound art of nonsense'' Guardian
