The Man Who Wouldn't Get Up and Other Stories

The Man Who Wouldn't Get Up and Other Stories is the first collection of short stories by David Lodge.

The collection was initially published in 1995 by the Zurich-based publisher Haffmans Verlag entitled Sommergeschichten – Wintermärchen (Summer Stories - Winter Tales) then in 1998 a limited edition was published by his friend Tom Rosenthal at Bridgewater Press, entitled The Man Who Wouldn't Get Up and Other Stories: a more engaging title.

The collection contained six stories.

In 2016 two further stories were added as were the Foreword, Afterword and 'Hommage to David Lodge' by Philippine Hamen.
