Informazioni sul libro
Phil Lowe’s Derby and Derbyshire based Scouting For Monty Python is a fond memoir of being coerced into joining the Wolf Cubs and the Boy Scouts during the 1960s and 1970s. It is written with a great deal of nostalgic humour and plenty of tongue-in-cheek, sometimes quite surreal, storytelling as we follow the wimpy adventures of Figgy Lowe- a shy boy with sticky out ears - whose idea of adventure is planting an apple pip on a sports field and hoping it will grow into a tree – by the next day. Laugh along as you read about his bold invites into Scouting; invites that included going abseiling, canoeing, wild swimming, hill running or climbing a mountain but instead, make him run for the hills in abject terror.

Scouting For Monty Python is light-hearted memoir written with a great deal of sometimes irreverent humour and fine detail about an East Midlands based working class life for Phil Lowe as a boy and teenager in the 1960s and 1970s.

I am a professionally published writer and have conducted and written interviews with many from the world of theatre including National Theatre director Rufus Norris, Warwick Davis, Howard Brenton, John Godber, Joe McGann, Shobna Gulati and Brian Conley. I run the popular theatre website www.eastmidlandstheatre.com which promotes theatre and shows in the East Midlands (and beyond) as well as reviewing and mentoring other reviewers on my team. My books on Blurb represent my love of writing about certain parts of my life such as working for a big supermarket chain (Supermarket Creatures) and witty stories about travelling on public transport (The Total Joys of Travelling On Public Transport). My most recent book is my biggest to date and is Scouting For Monty Python. A childhood journey in the 1960s and 1970s when I reluctantly joined the Cubs and The Scouts.
