Рыба моей мечты
Sheikh Muhammad
Доктор Альфред Джонс из Лондонского Центра рыболовства получает от некоего таинственного шейха странное предложение: ввести в Йемене спортивные соревнования по ловле лосося. Доктор Джонс отказывается, но абсурдный с научной точки зрения проект попадается на глаза британским политикам, видящим в предложении шейха почти неограниченные возможности. И тут начинается бурная эпистолярная деятельность всех персонажей от премьер-министра до стенографисток, ловля лосося в которой не имеет ровно никакого значения, кроме как отвлечь общественность от более важных вещей, например, от войны в Ираке. Доводы доктора Джонса о громком провале громкого проекта никого не волнуют, впрочем, герой продолжает пытаться жить своей жизнью, будучи сначала пешкой, а затем и жертвой политической игры.
