about me


I retired from England to a little fishing village in The Algarve Portugal 2005. I am artist, poet.

My book is the true story of my surprising life from the 40s through to the 90s. As a six year old. Teen of the 60s.Laughter, Love, Sadness. Each chapter stands on its own or (Portraits) I am quite well known as an artist, poet, and apart from a little arthritis in joints I am disgustingly healthy. But I am told by well known others, (must not name them) It's a great story to tell, and a good book to read.

If you would like to check me out.

If I read your book I will NOT skim through the first three paragraphs like a wasp on steroids, then leave you a load of bull, most copied from previous comments. I will read at least 5 chapters and probably all you have posted. And then leave a proper comment. If your book is better than any on my shelf then I will exchange one for yours.

PORTRAITS OF A SMALL PEASANT.

Philip Allsop.

You must tell the world your story I was told. Against my better judgment here it is. You will smile, laugh, maybe small tear.


I have no health problems, and never been abused, (chance would be a fine thing now at 72 ugly and wrinkly) please read on. The true surprising story of my life through the 40s then later living with the Gypsies. the wild teen years of the 60s. Love, Laughter, Sadness. I was born a peasant, or bottom of the pile in 1940, definitely no silver spoon inserted up my posterior when born. I had the best Mum a boy could have, many years on to find the best wife a man could have. I write my book for them, each chapter stands on its own, or PORTRAITS of my life. I have disgustingly good health (no apologies)) you will laugh and smile, maybe just a small tear only. This is not an ordinary boring, yawn yawn biography book, prove me wrong.

I have come back after nearly 3 years to read this book again, and it was just as enjoyable, which has only confirmed what I thought last time, that it has been undervalued and deserves to be published. High stars and on my shelf. I have no more to say. Portraits Of A Small Peasant....Phil. view book

I read up to chapter15 then 62 through to 69. I will keep this short, you are one hell of a writer, a lot more than a little clever, with great insight of human nature.
