Beware Imitations! Mark Watson walks the tightrope of good taste in this deviously brilliant spoof of the seamier side of the 'entertainment industry'. Rose and Andreas make an exceedingly odd couple in 1980s Cambridge: she is the fifth tallest woman in Britain and he is a penniless post-grad from Germany. But together they set up a lookalike agency with bizarre, and ultimately fatal, results. Twenty years on, and Andreas is in prison. His days aren't improved by the humdrum letters he receives from his 'pen-pal' Alexandra, a young woman determined to do good works. To keep her at bay, Andreas sends her an untranslated memoir by 'A.H.'. It's not long before Alex's flatmate dusts down his rusty German and the pair find themselves in a netherworld of off-colour 'celebrity' performances, and on the trail of some seriously dangerous lookalikes. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

'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 three marathon stand-up shows - lasting 24, 33, and 36 hours. His fiction debut, Bullet Points, was published in 2004: 'simply a great novel, full stop.' (Matt Thorne)
