They work beautifully as whodunnits but its really the world he creates and populates ... and the quality of the writing which makes these stories utterly superior.</p><p>The Flaxborough Chronicles are satires on the underbelly of English provincial life, very well observed, very funny and witty, written with an apt turn of phrase ... <strong>A complete delight</strong>.</p><p><strong>If you have never read Colin Watson - start now</strong>. And savour the whole series.</p><p>Light-hearted, well written, wickedly observed and very funny - <strong>the Flaxborough books are a joy</strong>. Highly recommended.</p><p><strong>How English can you get?</strong> Watsons wry humour, dotty characters, baddies who are never too bad, plots that make a sort of sense. Should I end up on a desert island Colin Watsons books are the ones Id want with me.</p><p><strong>A classic of English fiction</strong>... Yes, it is a crime novel, but it is so much more. Wonderful use of language, wry yet sharp humour and a delight from beginning to end.</p><p>Colin Watson writes in such an understated, humorous way that I follow Inspector Purbrights investigation <strong>with a smile on my face from start to finish</strong>.</p><p>If you enjoy classic mysteries with no graphic violence and <strong>marvellously well drawn characters</strong> then give the Flaxborough series a try - you will not be disappointed.</p><h2>Editorial reviews:</h2><p>Watson has <strong>an unforgivably sharp eye for the ridiculous</strong>. <em>New York Times</em></p><p>Flaxborough is Colin Watsons quiet English town whose outward respectability masks a seething pottage of greed, crime and vice ... Mr Watson <strong>wields a delightfully witty pen dripped in acid</strong>. <em>Daily Telegraph</em></p><p><strong>Arguably the best of comic crime writers</strong>, delicately treading the line between wit and farce ... Funny, stylish and good mysteries to boot. <em>Time Out</em></p><p>A great lark, <strong>full of preposterous situations and pokerfaced wit</strong>. Cecil Day-Lewis</p><p><strong>One of the best</strong>. As always with Watson, the writing is sharp and stylish and wickedly funny! <em>Literary Review</em></p><p><strong>The rarest of comic crime writers</strong>, one with the gift of originality. Julian Symons</p><p>Flaxborough, <strong>that olde-worlde town with Dada trimmings</strong>. <em>Sunday Times</em></p>9781788420242_Prelude Bookslibro_electonico_b5380688-1294-3cbe-9569-4e64141bc2cc_9781788420242;9781788420242_9781788420242Colin WatsonInglésMéxicohttps://getbook.kobo.com/koboid-prod-public/prelude-epub-1283e5a2-de73-4c7f-87db-2a7200216e6b.epub2018-06-14T00:00:00+00:00Prelude Books
