| 520 | |a Sir Terry Pratchett was Britain's best-selling living author, and before his death in 2015 had sold more than 85 million copies of his books worldwide. Best known for the Discworld series, his work has been translated into 37 languages, and performed as plays on every continent in the world, including Antarctica. Marc Burrows delves into the back story of this enduring and beloved author, from his childhood in the Chiltern Hills, to his time as a journalist, and the journey that would take him--via more than sixty best-selling books--to an OBE, a knighthood and national treasure status. Friends and contemporaries who knew the real man under the famous black hat help to piece together the full story of one of British literature's most remarkable and beloved figures.--From book jacket flap. | ||
