Tom Sharpe - a short biography and bibliography of this KwaZulu-Natal author. zoom Tom Sharpe Tom Sharpe (1928 - ) was educated at Lancing and Pembroke College, Cambridge. He did his National Service in the British Marines before going to South Africa in 1951, where he did social work for the Non-European Affairs Department before teaching in Natal. He had a photographic studio in Pietermaritzburg from 1957 until 1961, when he was deported. From 1963-72 he was a lecturer in history at the Cambridge College of Arts and Technology. His second novel, the sequel to Riotous Assembly , is called Indecent Exposure . His other novels include The Great Pursuit Wilt Porterhouse Blue and Blott on the Landscape . Tom Sharpe is married and lives in Dorset, U.K. Selected Work From Riotous Assembly (1971)(Note: Piemburg is Sharpe's thinly veiled fictitious name for Pietermaritzburg.) Kommandant van Heerden had few illusions about himself and a great many about everything else. And it was thanks to his illusions that he found himself in charge of the Police station in Piemburg. It was not a very onerous position. Piemburg's mediocrity was not conducive to more than petty crime and it had been felt at Police Headquarters in Pretoria that, while Kommandant van Heerden's appointment might push the city's crime rate up, it would at least serve to lower the waves of violence and theft that had followed his posting to other more enterprising towns. Besides, Piemburg deserved the Kommandant. As the one town in the Republic still to fly the Union Jack from the Town Hall, Piemburg needed to be taught that the Government could not be challenged without taking some revenge.

Expatica.com email : pass : news magazine entertainment working ... lingo Advertisement home page /es interview archive Why Tom Sharpe left Cambridge for Catalonia In an exclusive village in Catalonia, Tom Sharpe found the place where he could break a 20-year writer's block. Britain's master of farce sat at the vast desk in his white-walled villa, overlooking the sea, and wrote his new book, Wilt in Nowhere, on an ageing Smith-Corona typewriter. Seven years in the writing, the book brings back to life his most famous character, Henry Wilt. It's already a bestseller. Wilt, a hapless Cambridge college lecturer who tries to get rid of his wife Eva, is Sharpe's most popular character. He is loosely-based on Sharpe himself, who worked as a lecturer in Cambridge before making a breakthrough as a writer with his first book Riotous Assembly But before his latest novel, Sharpe did not publish a book for 20 years - principally because of a series of health problems. Indeed, his main reason for preferring life on the Costa Brava is the faith he puts in the Spanish health system after he claims he was "let down" by two British doctors.
