English Summary/英文概要: Whilst the following story is completely true, I have slightly changed my own identity in order to avoid prosecution and/or violent death - or, at the very least, a good kicking. Not that any of the events contained herein were my fault - or at least none of the important ones. Or only some of them. Unless you include obtaining money under false pretenses. Or the borrowing of various motor vehicles without permission. Or perverting the course of justice. And, of course, the use of sarcasm and choice language in a built-up area. Oh, and being party to the kidnapping of several young people with multiple disabilities, though that was definitely just a case of being caught up in the excitement of the moment. And the same could really be said about all the explosions, the arson, the molesting of various indigents and the so-called high treason charge that, in my opinion,was trumped up because none of the other stuff was going to stick in court. Or the thing about interfering with the dead guy. But I was desperate at the time. That came out all wrong. No, wait, if you’d just let me explain -

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 虽然以下故事完全真实,我还是略微隐藏了自己的身份,以免遭到起诉和/或被暴打身亡。- 或至少会被给点“颜色”看看。故事中发生的事错不在我。- 至少那些重要的事件都与我无关。唔,或许只有几件事和我相关。那你得把欺诈金钱、偷窃摩托车、妨碍司法公正或是在人口密集区使用讽刺和粗鄙的语言也算进去。啊,还得算上参与绑架几位患有多重残疾的青年,虽然那只是一时激动。那些爆炸、纵火、猥亵穷人还有所谓的叛国罪都是如此。那所谓的叛国罪,在我看来,更是捏造的,因为其他的任何控诉都不足以被推上法庭。还有猥亵那位死者,当时我真的太绝望。这些事都是错的。不,等等,如果你让我解释(LNL)

Awards/获奖情况:我喜欢这本有趣的犯罪喜剧。它介于汤姆•夏普(Tom Sharpe)和罗伯特•兰金(Robert Rankin)的风格之间。倒霉的主角迈克•兰特(Mike Rant)总是陷入困境,但方式总是那么有趣。

I enjoyed this funny and entertaining crime caper. It’s a cross between Tom Sharpe and Robert Rankin. Hapless main character Mike Rant gets into scrapes and corners but always in an amusing way.
