FREE ON KINDLE ONLY UNTIL SEPT 5 2016(afterwards just 99p/99¢): THE OBROVSKY THEATRE Co OF BLAZNIVYZEME is an outrageous satirical black comedy about a troupe of dwarves trying to mount a production of Hamlet in a fictitious Eastern European country as it undergoes a difficult transition from communism to capitalism. Lured out of a premature retirement to play the lead is Jiři Bloudín, a brilliant, charismatic if cocky actor known in his country as the Miniature Marlon Brando. A notorious womaniser, Jiři is unapologetic about his hedonistic lifestyle, which includes copious amounts of cocaine and alcohol, though rumour has it that he may be washed up.
Needless to say, little goes as planned….
The book has been hailed by LUKE RHINEHART, author of the cult favourite novel The Dice Man as a "delight" and a "joy". "BRUCE PALEY IS AN EXTRAORDINARY WRITER" wrote Rhinehart, " AND HIS OBROVSKY IS A DELIGHT: AN ORIGINAL LAUGH-OUT-LOUD COMEDY. THE SITUATIONS ARE OUTRAGEOUS, BUT FOLLOWING THE EXPLOITS OF THE ALL-TOO-HUMAN PROTAGANISTS IS A JOY"
