This book received raves from all the major reviewers and was considered one of the 10 best by the New York Times. I think you have to have the wry mindset required by satire to get 100 per cent out of this book and some readers haven't enjoyed it. But if a good witty biting bash at the absurd is what you're looking for, try reading this. It just keeps coming at ya'.
