Sharpe T., Wilt in Nowhere — 2005

Tom Sharpe's indefatigable hero is pitted against the vices of an aristocratic pervert, the merciless greed of a politicians wife and the seedy underbelly of Britain's medical facilities, deftly exposing the farcical realities of small-town England and America.

Sharpe T., Vintage Stuff — 2002

Peregrine Roderick Clyde-Brown, a bumbling British public schoolboy, has a penchant for taking the most innocent commands literally. His adventures whisk him to a French castle, where he commits murder and mayhem. British humor is rarely captured as effectively as this. Fry accomplishes an incredible range of accents and distinctions of age, occupation and sex. If hearing an imitation of a man with a missing lower denture tickles you, then Vintage Stuff is right up your alley.

Sharpe T., Wilt on High — 2004

Henry Wilt is still teaching at the Fenland Tech, attempting to drill English into plasterers, dozing through tedious committee meetings and occasionally getting mildly plastered in 'The Pig in a Poke' with one of his few bearable colleagues. But the even tenor of his days is rudely interrupted when the shadow of drug dealing flickers across the Tech. Suddenly Wilt becomes the target of suspicion. His colleagues believe him to be responsible for triggering a departmental inquiry, and his old adversary Inspector Flint, knowing that he's guilty of something, sees a chance to settle a number of scores.

Sharpe T., Wilt — 2002

Shows how young people are responding differently to social, economic, and cultural transformations. By developing a brand of spatial cultural studies, this book explores complex formations of race and class as they arise in the subtle textures of whiteness, respectability, and youth subjectivity. Henry Wilt has for ten years been trying to teach English literature to his students at the Fenland College of Arts and Technology. He has become bored, frustrated and possibly murdereous, so Chief Inspector Flint suspects the worst when Henry`s wife Eva goes missing. From the author of GRANTCHESTER GRIND.

Sharpe T., Ancestral Vices — 1982

Tom Sharpe is in top form—outrageously funny—Left-wing academics, right-wing capitalists, true-blue country gentry, workers, peasants, police and lawyers - all take custard pies full in the face in this boisterous knockabout farce.
