Negative Positive
Title: Up on Housing Project Hill
Review: I don't think this is quite up to its prequel, 'Take a Girl Like You', as it lacks the sheer zest of the earlier piece, but what it lacks in joy it almost makes up for in the determination of the dogged pursuit of the labyrinthine twists of the marriage-serpent's tail. The sheer energy of the author as well as his main protagonist are remarkable. It made me at least chuckle out loud all the way through.This book also contains a healthy dose of prejudices. Five a day and all that. Bob Dylan said negativity won't pull you through. No but a few good splashes will get you round the block a few times.
