Product Description

'The Oldie'

"Lovers of lavatory humour are in for a treat."


Product Description

Incredible... but true! The story of a man whose ingenious exploitation of his unique physical gifts made him the sensation of Paris, the rage of Europe. What was the secret of Le Petomane's act that it should have convulsed whole audiences for more than twenty years, from 1892 to 1914, and broken all records at the box office? This tribute, a curious blend of vulgarity and filfial pride, celebrates the career of a man whose natural endowments enabled him to perform feats that would be dismissed as impossible had they not been witnessed and vouched for by so many. A best seller in 1967 when it first appeared, this celebration edition, complete with the original, startling photographs, is a timeless memorial to the man who turned a physiological anomaly into a show business phenomenon. A trumpet blast to propel Britain into Europe!

5.0 out of 5 stars Get Right To The Source Of All The Stories., 30 Jul 2001
If you only buy one book about Farting make sure its this one because it gives you a blow by blow account of the life and times of the Great 19th Century Fartiste Joseph Pujol ( Le Petomane ). The WWW is riddled with stories about this famous performer and other books profess to have all the facts but the truth is that if you want a blow by blow account of Pujol, his history and his life, then this is the book you should be reading as this is the book that everyone else is quoting from, even if they don't realise it. Le Petomane is THE BOOK about Le Petomane, A "Right Ripping Read" with "Genuine Photographs" this book is a timeless memorial to Pujol and his work.
