Autor H. E. Batesen Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 noi 2006
And so with the appearance of a letter announcing the imminent arrival of Madame Dupont, Pop and Ma Larkin learn that little Oscar and Blenheim - Charley and Mariette's new boy - are to be christened. In fact, once Mr Candy - who will be officiating (much to raven-haired Primrose's delight) - learns that Pop and Ma have neglected the entire Larkin brood, the whole family seems set for a dunking!
Pop, who needs no excuse to open a few bottles of Dragon's Blood and host the perfick party, rushes out and buys a fun fair to celebrate. But there are one or two gatecrashers even Pop hadn't counted on turning up . . .

As funny as Evelyn Waugh and as enchanting as Laurie Lee'sCider with Rosie. Don't miss it
Pop Larkin, Ma and their progeny . . . are essentially English of the rich and ribald England of Chaucer and Shakespeare. A superb and timeless comedy
Pop is as sexy, genial, generous, and boozy as ever. Ma is a worthy match for him in all these qualities
Pop Larkin is a living, breathing quotable character, cast large in the heroic mould
Busty and lusty
A gently, anarchic wish-fulfilling daydream
