The Pickwick Papers

Mr Samuel Pickwick, retired businessman and confirmed bachelor, is determined that, after a quiet life of enterprise, the time has come to go out into the world. Founder of the Pickwick Club, he and his fellow Pickwickians elect to form a Corresponding Society and report back about their journeys and exploits on a regular basis. Thus begins the chronicle of their hilariously comic adventures.

Reviews

Silurian works well as an audio and should please fans of the show - both old and new.

—— Charles Packer , http://www.sci-fi-online.com

One of the great pleasures of this book is his description of life in the hairy Seventies; of discovering David Bowie, Grand Funk Railroad, prog rock and Yes.

—— Observer

This is both a touching and fascinating memoir... a great read told in the comedian's wickedly witty humour

—— Hot Stars

Unlike the current glut of misery memoirs, his book... is a funny, positive read.

—— Northern Echo

Well done, have a gold star

—— Bob Mortimer

Reveals a surprising amount about his art... there is much to enlighten, entertain and put into use

—— Psychologies

Hamilton tells such a good story that she turns a work of scholarship into a page-turner

—— Times Literary Supplement

Hamilton has done a good job of researching a subject that blues fans will find fascinating

—— Prospect

Evocative and engaging

—— Tim Willis , Sunday Telegraph
