Roger Lewis (born 26 February 1960) is a Welsh academic, biographer and journalist. He has written a biography of Anthony Burgess, which prolific author and essayist Tim Conley described thusly: "Lewis at work here is like nothing so much as an adolescent publicly masturbating on the exhumed corpse of his father, and thinking this performance the acme of wit." 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.literaturewales.org/writers-of-wales/i/135940/ )〕〔http://www.themodernword.com/reviews/lewis.html〕 Lewis was raised in Bedwas, Monmouthshire, where he was educated at Bassaleg School. He then attended the University of St Andrews (MA) before studying further at Magdalen College, Oxford (MLitt). He became a Fellow of Wolfson College, Oxford, in 1984.〔 Lewis has also published books on Laurence Olivier, Peter Sellers〔 1108 pages.〕 and the ''Carry On'' actor Charles Hawtrey (''Charles Hawtrey: the man who was Private Widdle'', 2001).〔 Lewis was sacked by his publisher, Biteback,〔http://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-2725460/EPHRAIM-HARDCASTLE-Jeremy-Clarkson-offers-consoling-words-A-level-pupils-disappointed-exam-results.html〕 for saying "that you can always spot a lesbian by her big thrusting chin. Celebrity Eskimo Sandi Toksvig, Ellen DeGeneres, Jodie Foster, Clare Balding, Vita Sackville-West, God love them: there’s a touch of Desperate Dan in the jaw-bone area, no doubt the better to go bobbing for apples." 〔http://www.spectator.co.uk/books/9274711/dusty-by-karen-bartlett-review/〕 == List of publications == * * * * * * * 1108 pages. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Roger Lewis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
