This was a really funny book, and it sounded so authentically boyish that I never doubted a word of Shute's. No matter that it was set years and years ago, the essential boy remains the same, obsessed with the same sort of behaviours, doing the same damn-fool things. Recommended for people who like boys and their foibles.
Just awful. I couldn't finish it. Maybe it gets better, but life is too short to read bad books.
