Book description
'A delightfully rauchy story... a lovely blend of humour, sexual
comedy and pathos' Daily Express
'A rollicking tale of a Welsh sailor with a girl in every port, but
only one true love at home...Thomas has a rare gift for words...This
is his best book and a celebration of his robust talents, which
combine flesh with imagination. He always had a narrative verve, and
this saga develops it into a turn of the wheel of life. Revolving
Jones comes back at last to his eternal miss, and hopefully, Leslie
Thomas will achieve a revolution in his reputation' The Times
'This exciting adventure story is also one man's pilgrimage, a
lifetime's odyssey, a ritually layered tale of the quest for humour
and love' Daily Mail
'He inhabits that "bestseller author" territory that
includes the likes of Jeffrey Archer, Jack Higgins and Ken Follett,
but he is a far better writer than any of them' Marcel Berlins,
Sunday Times
