Descrizione libro Condizione: New. CALLING MAJOR TOM is a funny, moving, uplifting tale of friendship and community that will leave you with a spring in your step. A MAN CALLED OVE meets THE UNLIKELY PILGRIMAGE OF HAROLD FRY, by way of IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE. Meet Thomas. Yesterday, he was the grumpiest man on the planet. Today, he is Britain's unlikeliest astronaut. He is all alone on a one way mission and couldn't be happier about it. No more nuisance calls about PPI insurance. No more tinny music blasted from young people's telephones. No more crossing the street to avoid neighbours who should really mind their own business. But beneath his cranky exterior lies a story and a sadness. So when the man the media have dubbed Major Tom accidentally calls the wrong number and is put through to the dysfunctional yet loveable Ormerod family, what begins is a heart-warming and comical tale of unexpected friendship. You'll laugh, you'll cry, and you will cheer on all the curmudgeons in your life. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
