The Big Cheese

My mate Jeff has a brilliant post about pungent cheeses being left under the hotel pillow of his and his wife Ann's room in France. The things which award-winning writers get up to on tour.

  1. Joe,

    Do you know this Mark Twain story?

    (start at "The Invalid's Story")

    What's wonderful is the way that the 'corpse''s rank increases as the rank smell does.

  2. I love Twain, but didn't know that one - quite perfect to go with this story, thanks! Will have to pass it on to Jeff.
