Rum Doodle is based on a book called The Ascent of Rum Doodle which is a short novel by W. Another book worth reading is “The ascent of Rum Doodle” – I read this book when I was in Greenland in 2004 but there are two copies kicking round camp so I hope to get to reread soon. Another thriller I'd recommend would be Frederick Nolan's Mittenwald Syndicate. Once upon a time, in a faraway land -- 1956 in London, to be more specific -- a funny novel about mountaineering was published. A bumbling group of British mountaineers mounts an assault on Rum Doodle, a slightly higher neighbor of Everest, in Bowman's parody novel, which was published in 1956 and became a classic within the climbing community. Brian Blessed is one of this country's best known and most highly respected actors. From Bodnath we took a cab to Rum Doodle bar which is the bar named after a book written by W.E. Chicago: Academy Chicago Publishers, 1988. Read by a selection of Britain's most-loved actors. The Ascent of Rum Doodle by W.E. Oversized egos, sensationalised dramas and a tendency towards solipsism can be self-defeating, as WE Bowman's parody The Ascent of Rum Doodle (1956) makes hilariously clear. Anyway I'm back in Paris now, after nearly a week camping in the forest of Fontainebleau in a trip in which so much went wrong it became a parody of itself, like some sort of bouldering version of The Ascent of Rum Doodle. Also Moonfleet by Falkner and the Ascent of Rum Doodle (a cult classic). "Parody of mountaineering manuscripts." To aid the pitch, William brought along with him his copy of this book and highly recommended it. Brian Blessed reads an extract from WE Bowman's mountaineering exploits in The Ascent of Rum Doodle. Bowman – you'll find a copy of the book in your room!
