Billy Liar by Keith Waterhouse (1959)

One of my favourite books.

  1. I didn't know this book Ron, but i did some research on it and I think it would be a favorite of mine too. Love the use of a strong imagination, both in the book and your collage!

    1. Watched it again last night on the free DVD given away with the Daily Mail ( the only worthwhile thing they ever did!) . Some great perfomances by Wilfred Pickles, Julie Christie, Rodney Bewes and a host of others.

  4. Don´t know the book or film either but like the b&w collage you made - he, dreaming of and imagine another life.
