Description
'It was my 18th birthday when I chanced upon Harrison Dextrose's The Lost Incompetent: A Bible for the Inept Traveller , little knowing that it would one day lead me to kill a man with a dead penguin ...'. Inspired by explorer Harrison Dextrose's book - a curmudgeonly account of travels through unfashionable lands in search of a lost drinking partner - and Suzy Goodenough's carnal delights as the prize, Alexander Grey rolls off his sofa to follow in the acclaimed man's footsteps. This is no usual travel text, involving poodle-farming, the Frihedhag sisters, wilful consumerism, an unwanted but undaunted sidekick, one too many rodents and the 24-hour Iditamush sled race, starring a sausage dog. And along the way, Alexander may, or may not, help to save the world. It's that kind of a trip.
