About this product
Product Information
Once there was a girl, pretty and smart and sexy. By sixteen, she was married, by seventeen she had a child, and by eighteen she'd sent her son to live with an aunt. By her early twenties, she'd acquired another child and a second husband, and life wasn't going to plan- Then she met a man. Outrageous, brilliant, impossible, charismatic and kind, he was irresistible - famous for being bisexual, for a comic strip and for his music. Sex, drugs and jazz were a heady combination for the girl from Essex. Suddenly it was the swinging sixties and she was juggling babies with one hand and popping pills with the other. When George Melly wasn't in jazz clubs, he was fishing - and not just for fish. Brutally honest, hilariously candid, she has a beady eye for the ridiculous, the pompous, and conjures up with almost chilling matter-of-factness the helter-skelter of those years. The reader is gripped with horror, pity, amazement, as our heroine can't help hurtling towards tragedy - breakdowns, the death of a child, estrangement, failed love affairs and illness - but always she comes through. A classic in the making, this is the extraordinary story of a turbulent marriage, of the uncharted

- m***l (155)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseExceptional service from a very reliable seller. They were offering a long-out-of-print book at a very reasonable price. On checkout I was given a 10% discount code; the book was dispatched with free postage, followed by an email advising they were giving a refund because they considered the book was not in as good a condition as advertised. The book arrived two days later, well-packaged and in great condition too. Thank you WeBuyBooks, I’m happy to recommend such exemplary service.The Painted Bird (Kosinski, Jerzy) - Kosinski, Jerzy (#365417334987)
