I picked this up in a second hand bookshop on account of Douglas Adams' blurb on the front cover calling it "Completely Brilliant."

Must be one of the strangest short reads I have had in a long time. A short story collection stringed together only by virtue of wicked humour, steak cooking cynicism & the most insane, ironic pathos delivered with such everyday matter-of-factness I felt like I was not normal to not have yet had any of these extremely impossible situations accost me. Thankfully, if ironically, most of these little skits features a comedy writer - so I was able to pat myself on the back & quash all previous want of such delusional fame.

Don't pick it up if you're jobless, homeless & looking for a cheer up. Might do if you were just hard done by someone & wanting ideas for revenge. ( )

A number of funny stories, each quite different and some a little strange. ( )
