Beschreibung
Als wäre das Leben mit 81 nicht auch so schon schwer genug, jetzt ist Frank Derrick auch noch von einem Milchwagen angefahren worden. Nur widerwillig lässt er sich nun von Pflegekraft Kelly unter die Arme greifen, aber ihr Humor und ihre Unverwüstlichkeit lassen auch ihn nicht unbeeindruckt. A small and perfect look at a life neither remarkable nor disastrous, but completely extraordinary nonetheless. A quirky, life-affirming story.

Autorenportrait
Born in London ages ago to his two parents, Frank and Jenny, J.B. Morrison is a musician and already the author of two novels - Storage Stories and Driving Jarvis Ham. Goodnight Jim Bob is an autobiographical account of his ten years as singer with punk-pop band Carter The Unstoppable Sex Machine.
With Carter USM J. B. Morrison had 14 top 40 singles and a number one album. He played all over the world, headlined Glastonbury and was sued by The Rolling Stones. He's also made a ton of solo albums and wrote a screenplay for a film. Plus he was in a musical, in 2010 at the Edinburgh Fringe.
Is there no end to his talents? Yes. Everything not mentioned here. Don't ask him to put up a shelf or cook you dinner. The shelf will fall off the wall and you won't like the food.
