Book description
Burdened with a face only a mother could love, Stan Cattermole
determined to find a woman. Lugging his man-boobs along for the ride,
Stan shows Bridget Jones how it's done in this hilarious,
heart-wrenching and often outrageous account of his quest for love. This
is no misery memoir, but a tell-it-like-it-is account of Stan's trials,
tribulations and small triumphs, in and out of the bedroom. One part
love story, one part family saga, eight parts outrageous, laugh-out-loud
tragicomedy - and then, just for luck, another part love story - The
Intimate Adventures of an Ugly Man wrenches at the heart strings and the
funny bone, and will drag you screaming with laughter through the whole
gamut of human emotions. CHORTLE! as Stan pops his cyber-cherry with the
aid of a light sabre, a bowling ball and a large knob of butter. GASP!
as Stan is blindfolded, tied to a bed and abused with an IKEA spatula.
DESPAIR! as the pretty nose of yet another potential love interest
wrinkles in utter, utter disgust. The story of one man overcoming his
hurdles and making something wonderful of a miserable life, this
ever-hopeful tale will resonate with anyone who's suffered pain and
rejection, anyone who's vowed to transform their life and anyone who's
ever learned to laugh in the face of adversity. http://betedejour.
blogspot. com/ Stan Cattermole is the nom de plume of Bete de Jour.
Bete de Jour is another nom de plume. Then there's Plug Sugden, Slim
Mitchum and Edgar Elbows. Stan has had more noms de plumes than most men
have had hot dates. This is because, like Belle de Jour before him, he
chooses to remain anonymous - not because he's afraid of fame and
celebrity scrweing up his day job (or indeed night job), but because for
once in his life he wants to move beyond the bald fact of his ugly face.
