Jasper Fforde adventure in 2005.
“Oh, how I wish my worthless body would melt into a liquid and then evaporate.”
“Or that God had not decreed suicide a complete no-no.”
“Oh God, oh God! How tired, stale and boring life seems to me.”
“Oh, damn and double blast! I feel like a garden that’s been left to seed and has been overtaken by all those really annoying weeds, like Japanese knotweed or nettles, both of which can be destroyed by using a recommended herbicide, available from Jekyll Garden Centres.”
