|summary=When Bardolph Middle placed an ad in the paper proclaiming he was a writer, he thought he might get the odd request to write a speech or two. Maybe, if he was very lucky, a company might ask him to conceive an entire marketing plan and advertising campaign. What he never expected was this job offer... An hilarious must read comic/literary novel.

|summary=A fascinating look at a Chinese way of life many of us will never see, in the context of football; something many of us can understand. It does end up more about the football than about China, though.
