The Alternative Christmas Letters

Christmas letters are often lovingly typed and photocopied, describing epic holidays, the amazing feats of offspring, rooms that have been decorated and operations endured. But in his own unique and quirky way, John Redmond writes alternative Christmas letters. These cover a wide range of subjects, including pantomimes, Latin, the euro, My Little Pony dolls, buying washing machines, and playing cricket. Autobiographical elements, including growing up in a mining village, a career as a university professor and his 22 year battle with Parkinson's Disease, are woven through the book, resulting in highly entertaining letters that are both amusing and tragic.
