«A Gentleman's Bedside Book» is Tom Cutler's book of humor and curiosities, published by Constable in hardcover (310 pages, in English).
A miscellany to read in snatches: facts, anecdotes, ideas and advice with an offhand humor. There is anatomy for the practical man, common dreams, curry recipes, shaving, tongue twisters, bad movie dialogue, the history of concrete, mental arithmetic tricks and other oddities.
The subtitle of the work is «Entertainment for the Last Fifteen Minutes of the Day» and it was published in 2010.
A book intended for those seeking an enjoyable, curious and fragmentary read in short moments, such as before sleep.
British humorist and non-fiction writer (b. 1959)
