Produktinformationen zu „Happy is a Grumpy Road (ePub)“

Ralph has been widowed for five years and feels it is at last time to emerge from his long period of lonely grieving for his beloved Alice. With encouragement from members of his family, he explores the world of online dating for the over sixties - and what a variety of ladies he encounters. Each one brings her own little foible that ensures his quest becomes a frustrating and lengthy process. His lack of success convinces him that to restore his former contentment is a hopeless task but his daughter-in-law will not allow him to surrender.
He is convinced that no one in their right mind wants to spend the rest of their days with a grumpy old man unless they have a desperate flaw, but Ralph isn't seen by others as grumpy. He just likes a good old moan like most people in their sixties and some of his consorts even sympathise with his complaints about the modern world, especially as his complaints are usually delivered with humour.
Just as he thinks he has found the lady for him, her old flame raises his head and scuppers Ralph's hopes, but that is not the end of the story.

Autoren-Porträt von Will Stebbings

Will Stebbings is rapidly gaining critical acclaim for his insightful novels, encapsulating nostalgia for the sixties and seventies, whilst adding a fair smattering of humour. His first novel 'Off the Mark' received so many plaudits that he felt compelled to write 'Further Off the Mark' which continues the rites of passage for its main character, Mark Barker, who left an all-boys' school with no experience of girls or the adult world in general. 'Completely Off the Mark' is about Mark's further exploits in the early 1970s, while 'Mark's Out of Eleven' takes us back to 1960 and his days at an all boys' Grammar School, when educational institutions were as much about discipline as they were education.
'Tess of the Dormobiles' is a comedy thriller and is not part of the Mark Barker quadrilogy, being set firmly in the 21st century and featuring a female lead character.
Will's love of soul music features heavily in his work, where he often used sixties and seventies soul records as the chapter titles.
All of Will's novels are set predominately in Norfolk, which is where he was born and raised.
