John Mortimer—novelist, playwright, memoirist, and the author of more than eighty Rumpole short stories—will never be forgotten. While still a practicing barrister, Mortimer took up the pen, and the rest is literary history. His stories featuring the cigar-chomping, cheap-wine-tippling Rumpole and his wife, Hilda (aka "She Who Must Be Obeyed"), have justly earned their place in the pantheon of mystery fiction legends, becoming the basis for the very successful television series
Rumpole of the Bailey. Bringing fourteen of Rumpole's most entertaining adventures (seven of which were collected in
The Best of Rumpole) together with a fragment of a new story,
Forever Rumpole proves beyond a reasonable doubt that Rumpole is never less than delightful.
