A short book that is nothing short of giving you a good laugh. At times provocative, grotesque yet gloriously endearing, AOK combines all the ingredients to make your summer more memorable, whether you are roaming around Greece like Allen or in your garden wishing you were on holidays too.

AOK is pure fiction, politically incorrect, vulgar, blasphemous, humorous, sad, and contains some certain life truths. It is a testament for older underachievers as it focuses on the main character, Allen, and his intent at 50 to reinvent himself on a beautiful island in the Greek Aegean Seas. It combines poetry, written by the dyspeptic poet Anthony, the ex-public-school eccentric, with factual history, archaeology, and Essex humour courtesy of Grace. AOK is an entertaining read that is anything but dull.
