Boris Starling

    1. Jänner 1969

    Boris Starling schreibt fesselnde Thriller, in denen der Tod oft eine herausragende Rolle spielt, manchmal sogar verdient. Seine literarische Reise begann mit einer frühen, wenn auch abgeschriebenen, Demonstration erzählerischen Talents, die seinen unverwechselbaren, oft gewalttätigen Erzählstil andeutete. Starling Romane, die unter seinem eigenen Namen und einem Pseudonym veröffentlicht werden, tauchen in die dunkleren Aspekte der menschlichen Natur ein und bauen die Spannung durchweg zu wirkungsvollen, oft brutalen Schlussfolgerungen auf. Neben seinen gefeierten Romanen hat er sich auch als Drehbuchautor und Schöpfer einer erfolgreichen Fernsehserie einen Namen gemacht.

      'Two parties, both alike in dishonour, in fair Westminster, where we lay our scene...' Written by the Bard himself, with a little help from parody writer and novelist Boris Starling, this wonderful 'comedy of errors' will retell the tragic story of the UK's acrimonious break from the EU, with our most prominent politicians the key characters in this Shakespearean pastiche: Michael Gove in the plotting 'Iago' role, the doomed David Cameron as 'Macbeth', Theresa May as 'Julia Caesar', Jeremy Corbyn unable to decide on anything as 'Hamlet', and, of course, Boris Johnson as the feckless old rogue 'Sir John Falstaff'. A most original take of the defining political era of our time - this will be the perfect satire for anyone interested in politics, humour, or even a little bit of Am-Dram.
