Negative Positive
Title: Strangely familiar collection of stories
Review: Everyone knows the opening "oh-the-author's-a-cat" tale is a cliche up there with "look before you leap", but what really irks me is the way that Archer's slimy personality leaps from the pages of this irritating book. There's a story about wine tasting, as I recall. Jeffrey too, I'm sure, enjoys only the finest wines, probably to go with his Ferrero Rocher. There's a story about bloody Oxford blues. Shame there isn't one for plagiarism. I'd almost recommend this compellingly shite book: rather like an Elvis movie, just when you think it can't get any worse, it does.
Is the review positive or negative?
