Son, Give Me Back My Trousers is a collection of short columns from Australian humourist John Martin — perfect for a quick read before bed, between bus stops or while pretending to be busy.
Before he was writing funny mystery novels, Martin was a newspaper columnist spinning tall tales about everything from teapot cosies turned fashion accessories to rats that haunt him from a long-ago island adventure.
Inside, you’ll discover Beethoven’s kerfuffle refuffle, a weight-loss bedtime story and more delightfully oddball reflections from Martin’s former life as a journalist.
Dry, quirky and cheerfully ridiculous — this is Australian humour at its most comfortably unhinged.
