Still More Christmas Crackers

Norwich, John Julius

The third decade (1990-1999) of Crackers. A generous helping including: the instruction book for a new washing machine, a notice in a hotel room, the etiquette governing revolving doors, Napoleon ordering the dancers of the Paris Opera to perform without their underwear, Adam and Eve conversing in palindromes, the story of Oedipus told in car number plates, an Oxford professor swallowing the heart of Louis XVI.
