Title: This book looked hilarious, but one mustn't judge a book by its cover
Review: The illustrations were great, and I found that the one page of text was addictive (the author originally published these in their newspaper column) but apart from one or two vignettes, it didn't have the "laugh out loud" factor that I thought I was promised by the cover. I skipped through most of it because it was too tiresome to read.Obviously I am here in New Zealand and unaware of the situation in Britain where these social stereotypes apparently exist. But this book isn't by the British version of Dorothy Parker, from what I can tell.
Is the review positive or negative?
