A Local Book for Local People par League of Gentlemen
Like one of those annuals you see in Britain for television shows, this is supposedly a scrapbook of things found by TubbsTattsyrup in Royston Vasey. It includes photos, maps of the town, parts from the local newspaper, scripts from the Legz Akimbo theatre group, a magazine article about the glam rock group Creme Brulee, tips on job hunting.... all things that tie into characters and situations from the television show "The League of Gentlemen". If you like the show this may or may not be your cup of tea. I found it amusing and worth reading, but I could see some might find it a bit removed from the show. I like the creation of the world and this book reinforces that the place exists by being related to it but perhaps not directly. If you're not a fan of the show, it will mean nothing to you. In fact, I don't know why you'd even be bothering to read this review.… (plus d'informations)
divided into four parts for each of the League of Gentlemen's authors (Gatiss, Dyson, Pemberton and Shearsmith) this features short writings about, and excerpts from, a wide variety of plays, poems and films that have interested, intrigued, influenced and inspired them through their careers. Interesting, when you know and enjoy their work, to see what they like to enjoy (surprisingly similar to my likes... is this why I like them?) Worth a read if you are interested in the influences of writers.
