Filled with laughter and a sense of the absurd, , Clinging to the Wreckage makes it clear why John Mortimer has been called Noel Coward, P. G. Wodehouse , and Evelyn Waugh rolled into one., In this spirited memoir John Mortimer , an esteemed barrister as well as novelist, playwright, and journalist, relates all the paradoxes and pleasures of his double life.
