I can never ever get sick of it.
"Frensic is a snuff-taking, port-drinking literary agent with 'a nose for a bestseller.' He receives a manuscript from an anonymous author's solicitor - 'an odyssey of lust...a filthy story with an even filthier style.'
Foreseeing huge profits in the US, Frensic places the book with Hutchmeyer, 'the most illiterate publisher in the world,' who insists that the book's author go on a promotional tour of the States. Frensic produces Peter Piper who agrees to be passed off as the author of Pause O Men For The Virgin. An innocent, abroad in the States, Piper is bedded by Mrs Hutchmeyer, a 'biblionut into literacy' and is the unwitting cause of confusion upon confusion, disaster upon disaster"
That's what the back of the book says anyway... It actually sounds very boring when you read it, but it's actually one of the most hilarious books I've ever read!!
The characters are really funny but none of them are particularly likable though they all have sound personalities.
The main reason I love the book is because of the subtle humor in it...and the not-so-subtle humor as well :D
All I'm saying is, if you ever see the book on sale - buy it! You will not regret it!!
