Kingsley Amis has a hot at a female narrator, The Brontes place some lonely hearts ads. ( )Pistache (pastiche/p*ss-take) is a small humorous book compiled from the only amusing round of an otherwise fairly tedious Radio 4 literary quiz. The contestants are asked to prepare a parody of a celebrated writer on an incongruous theme. So here we have Thomas Hardy's football report, Martin Amis' first day at Hogwarts, a Samuel Beckett monologue for Ronnie Corbett, James Bond at the supermarket, Sylvia Plath telling the story of Goldilocks and so on. Most amusing and inventive, but no roaring belly-laughs no reviews | add a review
