About
They say that narrative poetry is boring stuff but there's nothing boring about my rollicking tale, The Adventures of George, a witty, humorous and satirical look at national leaders, politicians and celebrities. It's easy to read, fast moving and you'll be amazed at the fascinating characters you meet - The Maximum Leader, Mustafa bin Maden, Didi Damin, Borrock Sobama, David Chipperfield and many more. Here are a few lines -
He glanced around - "That man over there,
That his intellect is powerful is very clear,
And in his features are wit and sagacity."
Said George, "that's the author Sir Solomon Pushdee."
Apart from poetry, I write novels, short stories, musicals and song lyrics. Although born in Oxford, England, I have lived for most of my life in Bangkok, Thailand.

Story Behind The Book
The plot of this humorous and satirical narrative poem is based on the President of a certain country and the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council. In the story, these people become a chef and five cooks at an exclusive New York club.
Although the cooks are not named, their descriptions give them away. Later characters have names that make it clear who they resemble and include The Maximum Leader, Mustafa bin Maden, Didi Damin, Borrock Sobama, David Chipperfield and many more.
George (the reader should be able to guess which George this is) has adventure after adventure that are all interlinked, for example, being kidnapped, being hypnotised and being attacked by foxhounds. Its a fast-moving, easy-to-read and
entertaining story that is completely original.
