The trouble with losing your mind if you're an author is, how anybody can tell. When Australian journalist Somerset Lenin emerges from a corn-field in south-west England, he notices a few cracks in his reality. He thought it strange to find himself wearing a yellow anorak and checked trousers and be standing in such a lonely place, worshipping the wind. Almost as strange as coming across a book entitled Oedipus and Hamlet- a Neo-Feminist Deconstruction by the Spice Girls (stickers not included).After losing his soul-mate, Natasha, to her husband, Somerset travels to England looking for the meaning of life and to write a follow-up article on crop-circles. Instead, he loses his mind. Okay, it wasn't that big to begin with, but it's his and he wants it back.Deja vu - you'll laugh until you stop.The AuthorSydney-based author and screenwriter, John Larkin, was born in England but grew up in the western suburbs of Sydney. He has, at various stages of his writing career, supported his habit by working as a supermarket trolley boy, shelf-stacker, factory-hand, forklift driver, professional soccer player, and computer programmer. He now writes full-time. John has a BA in English Literature and an MA in Creative Writing from the Macquarie University. John lives in Sydney's north-west with his wife Jacqui, their daughter Chantelle and a robust case of arachnophobia. He hates gardening, yapping dogs, and is the worst handyman on the face of the planet. His ambition is to retire to a lighhthouse in Ireland.Sales Points* John's particular style of writing is very appealing to older readers as it is slightly offbeat, often risky, at times confrontational and sometimes brutally honest! His unique humour has lots of appeal for young adult readers.* Both boys and girls enjoy John's penmanship, however, he is particularly good at getting boys reading, even the reluctant ones.* Hot on the tails of Bite Me, his previous Random House titles are re-jacketed and released with a fresher and funkier 'look'. * Growing Payne was shortlisted for the Wilderness Book of the Year Award for older readers.
