Title : Augustus Carp - Henry Howarth Bashford - book
Summary :
Anthony Burgess, the book's preface writer, doesn't mince his words: "One of the greatest humorous novels of the century." And one is surprised that this unique booklet, an object of worship for a large fan club of readers spread from one end of the planet to the other, had to wait three-quarters of a century before being translated into French (2003).
A book that nearly made three generations of readers around the world die laughing and which is now considered a classic. A tremendous slap in the face of the British bourgeoisie's sagging cheeks - and, beyond that, right in the face of the worst human stupidity: that of "virtuous" people... who, once the book is closed, will hopefully never be forgiven for having done good.
