I have started Inconceivable by Ben Elton.
I felt that I needed some light reading this time. I unexpectedly enjoyed Elton's Popcorn a while ago and acquired some more of his books. I selected this one from my shelf as it is just a tiny bit too tall for the place it was stored ...
The story is about a couple who are attempting, but failing, to start a family. Part of their therapy to is write letters to nobody in particular to help them gather their thoughts. The book is an alternating sequence of these letters. It is essentially a two-person diary. It has shades of Adrian Mole ...
I'm enjoying it so far. I was taken with the phrase "nuttier than squirrel shit".
