Summary:
Fanatical on the subject of cricket since he was a boy, MILES JUPP would do anything to see his heroes play. But probably determining to bluff his method into the press corps during England’s Check series in India wasn’t his greatest idea.
By claiming to be the cricket correspondent for BBC Scotland and obtaining a job using the (Welsh) American Mail, Kilometers lands the press pass that will definitely be the solution to his dreams. Quickly, he discovers himself in cricket heaven – drinking with David Gower and Beefy, posting bar room banter with Nasser Hussain and swapping diarrhoea stories using the Test Match Particular team. Amazing!
But struggling in heat beneath the burden of his own fibs, reality shortly catches up with Miles as – just like a cricket-obsessed Shoe from Evelyn Waugh’s Scoop – he bumbles from one disaster to the next. A joyous, captivating, yet cautionary tale, Fibber in the Heat is for anybody who’s ever dreamt about carrying out nothing but watching cricket all day long.
