Publisher Description: Welcome to the village of Abertump, nestling in the Swansea Valley. A village recovering from the loss of traditional industry, and coping in its own, eccentric manner. Walk the streets and meet the residents to find out some of the background to the series, The Strange Life of Horatio Evans. Horatio finds hapless and unwitting allies in the village as he seeks to implement a Soviet-style administration in the depths of a South Wales valley. |
Contributor Bio(s): Noyes, Ray: - They say that to be a good scientist one must have a good imagination. Ray Noyes would like to think that his time spent at CERN, the home of the Large Hadron Collider, so exercised his imagination to prepare it for writing satirical books about Horatio Evans. Ray studied under a Zen master for some twenty years or so and eventually was given permission to teach basic Zen, which he did at a Buddhist retreat centre in the hills of mid-Wales, near Llandovery. |
