Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Mark Watson is one of the UK's most talked-about stand-up comedians. He has won and been nominated for many awards, most recently Time Out Critics Choice (2006), the if.comeddies Panel Prize for the Edinburgh Fringe (2006), Barry Award for Outstanding Show at the Melbourne Festival (2006), Times/South Bank Breakthrough Award (2006) and Perrier Best Newcomer Award (2005). His Radio 4 series 'Mark Watson Makes the World Substantially Better' aired in Spring 2007. Mark is renowed in comedy circles for having performed four marathon stand-up shows - lasting 24, 33, 36 and 24 hours - the last of which had an environmental theme and involved planting trees in Edinburgh and cycle races in the Meadows. His fiction debut, Bullet Points, was published in 2004: 'simply a great novel, full stop.' (Matt Thorne)
