β€œEscape from The Fat Farm is a brilliant, surreal, darkly funny book that stuck in my memory like literary Krazy glue long after I put it down. McIntosh has a talent for gleaning weird, candid, eccentric moments from his encounters with the famous and infamous.”

Sweet (Author) Format: Kindle Edition Each evening, after the last of his legitimate surveying work was done, Elias would retreat into his sanctuary.
