Great Trash books

[diebitter]

They used to be extremely popular. I think I was about 10 when I became aware of them here (so 30 years ago), and they were pretty big. I've never read them, but I've seen one film with Malcolm McDowell I think, that wasn't very good. I'd definitely buy one and read it if I saw one in a second-hand book shop though. Pretty sure they're out of print now.


Another author who was also big (but a little while after Flashman, more like 20 years ago) was Tom Shapre, who wrote Wilt and a set of other books. These were absolutely great, funny, outrageous reads, but I think they were very English.

Any of you US guys heard of him?
