Synopsis "The Little Book of Shame: An Autobiography for People Who Don't Much Care for Reading"
"The funniest thing I have ever read." "Beautiful writing that leaves you breathless." "Obnoxious and rude ... destructive nonsense." These are just some of the words that have been written about some of the words in The Little Book of Shame, a collection of laugh-out-loud short pieces by the man described by Sky News as "one of the most exciting new literary talents of 2009".Whether he's pretending to be an old lady with a touch of the palsy; spontaneously converting to Judaism on the Charing Cross Road; sleeping in a poop-filled ditch in the middle of Spain; setting himself on fire in the middle of France; confronting religious bigotry in Amsterdam; or battling sexual thoughts on the train to Auschwitz, Karl Webster's writing is consistently hilarious and at times deeply moving. ...As well as countless magazine articles and a countable number of novels (4), Karl Webster has written everything from dictionary definitions to BBC comedy scripts; from the labels for Italian toiletries to underground marketing campaigns for Hollywood blockbusters. His writing has been favourably compared to the work of Kurt Vonnegut, Irvine Welsh, Mark Twain and Charles Dickens. He was also once accused of "hovering somewhere between Dostoevsky, Wodehouse and Adrian Mole". The Little Book of Shame - for anyone who's ever struggled with the business of being alive.
