Description: |
Winner of the 2016 International Bridge Press Association Book of the Year Award, this twelfth collection of David Bird's tales of the bridge-crazy monks of St Titus have appeared for more than 35 years in magazines around the world. |
Synopsis: |
In this book, the pompous and self-important Abbot spots a chance to take part in that Holy Grail of Bridge - the Bermuda Bowl world championships. Casting all ethics aside, he pursues this dream. Partnered by the Parrot, with the Witchdoctor, Mbozi, Mrs Okoku and Miss Nabooba as team-mates, he travels to India's Chennai and faces many of the world's real-life players. Regular followers of David Bird's work will know what to expect - a first-rate mixture of amazing bridge, entertaining characters and sparkling dialogue. |
