«Vicis ancestrals» is the satirical novel by Tom Sharpe, published by Columna in paperback (69 pages, in Catalan).
An English tycoon decides to use his wickedness against his relatives and partners of the multinational he chairs. He commissions a left-wing university professor, in theory his enemy, to write his family's history. Confusions, revenges and absurd situations follow, with the old Lord Petrefact's wheelchair as a key element.
Work originally published as «Ancestral Vices» in 1980; this Catalan edition appeared in 2002 within the Col·lecció Moderna collection.
For fans of satire and unbridled British humour, with absurd plots and eccentric characters.
Thomas Ridley Sharpe was an English satirical novelist, best known for his Wilt series, as well as Porterhouse Blue and Blott on the Landscape, all three of which were adapted for television.
