«El novelista más divertido de nuestros días» (The Times)
Los Grope, una familia muy antigua de Inglaterra, siguen viviendo en Grope Hall, la casa que construyeron sus antecesores, pero su historia no es convencional. La fundadora de la dinastía fue Ursula Grope, una fea criada, que un día se encontró a un joven vikingo que había desertado. La familia Grope ha sido desde entonces un matriarcado feroz. Hasta que un día, a comienzos del siglo XXI, llega Esmond Wiley, descendiente de otra florida rama de la Inglaterra más profunda. Con esta desopilante saga ?y la más feroz versión de la guerra de los sexos hasta la fecha? vuelve Tom Sharpe, el gran maestro de la irreverencia y a quien algunos consideran «el novelista más divertido de nuestros días» (The Times). «Sus novelas son locamente divertidas, pero también de una misantropía brutal, y no dejan indemne ningún aspecto de la vida y la cultura contemporáneas» (Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times Review of Books).
Tom Sharpe (1928-2013) nació en Londres y se educó en Cambridge. En 1951 se trasladó a Sudáfrica: allí vivió hasta 1961, fecha en que fue deportado y regresó a su país, donde se dedicó únicamente a escribir. Falleció en Llafranc, un pueblecito de l’Empordà donde residió durante mucho tiempo. Es considerado uno de los novelistas más divertidos de todos los tiempos. En Anagrama se han publicado todas sus novelas: Reunión tumultuosa, Exhibición impúdica, Zafarrancho en Cambridge, El temible Blott, Wilt, La gran pesquisa, El bastardo recalcitrante, Las tribulaciones de Wilt, Vicios ancestrales, Una dama en apuros, ¡Ánimo, Wilt!, Becas flacas, Lo peor de cada casa, Wilt no se aclara, La herencia de Wilt y Los Grope, así como su biografía Fragmentos de inexistencia, de Miquel Martín i Serra.
