Michael Cullen Novels Synopsis

Three uproarious comic novels from the iconic author of such classics as The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Runner and Saturday Night and Sunday Morning. Alan Sillitoe has been hailed as ';the most quietly eloquent of his cohort of postwar British novelists' (Jonathan Lethem). Here are three of Sillitoe's finest and funniest, chronicling the adventures of the ';happy bastard' Michael Cullen. A Start in Life: The saga begins as Michael Cullen says goodbye to his home in Nottingham and hits the road for London. There he will make his fortuneor die trying. Life Goes On: The legend of Britain's most unlikely hero continues. After a series of outlandish criminal adventures, Cullen is a bastard no more. But he is still a rake with a refreshing lack of scruples. With the open road in front of him, the police behind him, and randy waitresses at every lay-by, Cullen is up to his old tricks once again. Moggerhanger: This madcap tale finds Cullen hired by his ex-boss, racketeer Claude Moggerhanger, to do a little ';job.' But that's just the beginning of a wild adventure featuring crazed poets; endless women; rat catchers; Labrador retrievers; and his old friend, former mercenary soldier Bill Straw. Rolling Stone called Alan Sillitoe ';the master of British verbal architecture.' These three novels also reveal him as a master of the picaresque, one of the truly unmistakable and original voices in modern fiction.
