'Knobby Book' Set For May Release
 

The long awaited 'knobby book for boys' from Melvin Burgess is set for a May release in hardback by Anderson Press.

The book, entitled 'Doing It', will feature a cover with the title of the book emblazoned across a condom. It is sure to cause controversy and will no doubt be a huge success with its target audience.

Burgess himself says of the book "Finally it's finished - the knobby book for boys. It's called 'Doing It' and it's due out with Andersen Press next April/May. It's been about the hardest thing I've done - no pun intended - but I finally feel confident enough of it to put it out there... It is of course very filthy... Should be good ..."

Puffin, who recently signed a deal with Burgess to continue publishing his paperback titles and back catalogue, have redesigned the covers for a number of his paperbacks including the newly released Lady as well as an audio version of the same book.
