"I cannot recommend a book more joyfully… Hilariously funny, miraculously observed, endlessly touching" (Daily Telegraph). "Wild comedy… observed with merciless, flamboyant wit.

Graham Chapman is said to have been Monty Python`s one true anarchist. Like his mentors Spike Milligan and Peter Cook, the man who portrayed the mistaken messiah in Life of Brian lived his life on and off stage with a sheer delight in madness for its own sake. `I want to be a loony`, he said, `it`s quite an important thing`.

Bestseller Archer put his time in prison to fine literary use, as evidenced by the twelve stellar entries in his fifth story Collection… The economy and precision of Archer`s prose never fail to delight.

They range from a tale of "The Man Who Robbed His Own Post Office" to the story of a company chairman who tried to poison his wife while on a trip to St Petersburg - both with unexpected consequences. In another, "Maestro", an Italian restaurateur ends up in jail, unable to explain to...

Almost two decades have passed since the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe and the USSR. Robert Service, one of our finest historians of modern Russia, sets out to examine the history of communism throughout the world.
