This is the colouring book version of The Weybridge Sailing Club Monologues: The Complete Illustrations. Twelve melodramatic tales, variously set upon the River Thames and its banks between Thames Head and Putney, the Weybridge Sailing Club Monologues were written for recitation and have all been performed as after-dinner entertainment. The monologues have since been published in two illustrated volumes. In this book the complete illustrations from both volumes are presented in the order and to the scale in which they were originally drawn. Each illustration is contextualised by a few gobbets of verse from the corresponding monologue. The book is prefaced by an introduction explaining the origins of the Weybridge monologues and their distinctive illustrations. "'All art is autobiographical', said Federico Fellini, and these detailed illustrations both embellish and reveal the idiosyncratic and observant imagination of Tim Carter. These richly-layered tapestries depict with humour and exuberance, placing them firmly within a unique tradition of visual story telling." Mark Dunford LG, Artist. "Tim Carter has collated...his most popular post-prandial monologues on the subject of the Thames: rhyming tales to delight lovers of witty language and river exploits...He also illustrates the book in an endearingly naïve style." Tim Harrison, Editor, The Good Life. "I read these ingenious tales with great delight. As one who trained in the rigours of Oxford Linguistic Philosophy in the days or Freddy Ayer, I was intrigued by the display of verbal dexterity...the illustrations for the tales are most apt." Dudley Green, President of the Irish Section of the Brontë Society.
