Forever Rumpole
Forever Rumpole: The Best of the Rumpole Stories | John Mortimer, Ann Mallalieu
2 posts | 1 read | 1 to read
John Mortimernovelist, playwright, memoirist, and the author of more than eighty Rumpole short storieswill never be forgotten. While still a practicing barrister, Mortimer took up the pen, and the rest is literary history. His stories featuring the cigar-chomping, cheap-wine-tippling Rumpole and his wife, Hilda (aka "She Who Must Be Obeyed"), have justly earned their place in the pantheon of mystery fiction legends, becoming the basis for the very successful television series Rumpole of the Bailey. Bringing fourteen of Rumpole's most entertaining adventures (seven of which were collected in The Best of Rumpole) together with a fragment of a new story, Forever Rumpole proves beyond a reasonable doubt that Rumpole is never less than delightful.

Best book read in September? This one, because it was good to get reacquainted with an old friend. Seamus enjoyed it too. Four paws up!
