In any situation, jokes have primacy. It doesn't matter how dramatic or tragic a situation the characters find themselves in, they will always get a pun in at the very least. This is literature for people who want to have their funny bone tickled from the word go, and who don't mind a creaky overblown plot and a cast of exaggerated stereotypes. I swear there were no likeable men at all in this book, but we needn't worry about offending half the population, because the author mentioned sanitary towels in the first sentence, niftily ensuring none of them will read it anyway. I like a laugh, but this wasn't my style of humour. That doesn't make it a bad book, it's just a matter of preference. Many many people are going to be rolling around on the floor splitting their sides reading this. And even in my case, it had its moments. I loved the competitive mums at the baby group. And my favourite gag: "Maddy...couldn't think of one female who...would prefer to die rather than ask directions (which is why they now always include a token female on the space shuttle)" Oh yes, world class that one. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
A devastatingly funny tale from the author of Foetal Attraction, Alter Ego and Nip 'N' Tuck. Every woman wants to be wanted but just not by the entire Metropolitan police force. Maddy Wolfe's first day out with her newborn takes a Kafkaesque turn when she's wrongfully arrested in Harrods for shoplifting. The only person she can turn to is her hot-to-trot ex-lover Alex. Will he prove himself to be as useful as a solar powered vibrator on a rainy day ...? "a raucous comic ode to the joys of motherhood" -- Publishers Weekly Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
