This month, K9 Magazine is offering 5 lucky readers the chance to win a copy of Ian Moore’s ‘À LA MOD’, published by Summersdale.
Comedian, mod and professional grump Ian Moore has had enough. Tired of being unable to park anywhere near his cramped house in a noisy town he doesn’t like, he hatches a plan to move his wife and young son to a remote corner of the Loire Valley in search of serenity and space.
Several years later, Ian finds himself up to his neck in bilingual offspring, feral cats, promiscuous horses, dysfunctional spaniels and needy hens; he’s wrestling with electric fences, a foreign language, a mountain of animal waste and a wife who collects livestock like there’s a biblical flood on the horizon, all while trying not to dirty his loafers. But despite the ups, downs and increasing demands of Ian’s showbiz career, the Moore family persevere in true Brit style to create a unique, colourful and ultimately rewarding life in their new home – à la campagne and à la mod!
One upon a time the warm-up act for The Jonathan Ross Show, Ian Moore is a professional comedian and chutney maker extraordinaire. He is a mod in both walks of life and most of his time is spent travelling grumpily between the two.
‘I hate mods, I hate France and I hate reading but I still loved this book.’
