Nigel Williams Libros

1st paperback edition of "Witchfinder General" available, in fine condition and ready to ship from our UK warehouse.

Urdida en torno a la situación límite de una treintena de muchachos en una isla desierta, <i>El Señor de las Moscas</i> es una magnífica novela que admite lecturas diferentes e incluso opuestas. En efecto, si algunos pueden ver en esta indagación de William Golding en la condición humana la ilustración de que la agresividad criminal se halla entre los instintos básicos del hombre, otros podrán considerarla como una parábola que cuestiona un tipo de educación represiva que no hace sino incubar explosiones de barbarie prestas a estallar en cuanto los controles se relajan.

A welcome re-issue of Nigel William&#39;s modern classic of comic writing.

Nigel Williams, one of the UK's finest comic writers, returns with a poignant comic portrait of four marriages: a caustic satire of suburban intrigue, tainted love and late-flowering lust.

14-year-old ufologist Simon Britton's father has just died and his mother, a member of the First Church of Christ the Spiritualist, is trying to get in touch with him. But some weird messages come through instead. By the author of My Life Closed Twice which won the Somerset Maugham Award.

From Nigel Williams, acclaimed master comic genius of suburbia and author of the much-loved Wimbledon Poisoner: R.I.P. is a sublime comedy told from beyond the grave.

Hugh Laurie, known for his role as Dr. House, plays Paul Slippery in the film adaptation of this novel. Slippery, much like Dr. House, is a lovable curmudgeon nearing fifty, grappling with his growing waistline and enviously observing his sons' active love lives. Nigel Williams delivers a brilliant piece of British humor.

Robert Wilson is an aimless young man who has passed himself off as a Muslim to secure a job at the newly established Wimbledon Independent Islamic Boys' Day School. This is the story of his decline and fall, as he demonstrates the failure of a post-colonial Briton to understand another culture that has absolutely no need of him.
