Flashman: Difference between revisions

This is [[George Macdonald Fraser]]'s politically incorrect series of novels, presented as the memoirs of a Victorian war hero who is actually a bully, rapist, lecher, backstabber, and [[Dirty Coward|coward]]. The character Flashman is taken from the Victorian novel, ''[[Tom Brown's Schooldays]]'', where he is presented without any redeeming qualities. He has no redeeming qualities in Frasier's books, either, despite occasional feelings of love for his wife and always coming out of a situation alrightall right, so he might be considered a [[Magnificent Bastard]]. There is the ''very'' occasional indication that Flashy doth protest too much, and, to be honest, in the situations he finds himself in, "being a coward" also counts as "being the [[Only Sane Man]]".
