Description

"If you were to go up in a balloon, you would make for heaven; and if you were to dive into the depths of the earth, nothing short of the other place would content you."These are the words of characters Thomas Idle to Francis Goodchild; but they are really the words of authors Wilkie Collins to describe his friend, Charles Dickens.'The Lazy Tour of Two Idle Apprentices' is a collaborative novel produced by Dickens and Collins, in which they poke fun at themselves and at one another.

It also boasts two ghost stories which are a marvel to read from these two great masters.Set in Autumn 1857.

Two men set off for an idle adventure through the countryside of the English Lake District and the Fells. "They had no intention of going anywhere in particular; they wanted to see nothing, they wanted to know nothing, they wanted to learn nothing, they wanted to do nothing.

They wanted only to be idle." A novel to be enjoyed by fans of Bill Bryson's writing or the film adaptation of his book 'A Walk in the Woods', starring Robert Redford and Emma Thompson. -
