What I'm reading ...

I have started Gridlock by Ben Elton.

As I have commented on previous occasions [here and here], I never really expected to like Elton's books, but I was wrong. His writing never fails to impress me. And, so far, this book has not disappointed me. It's an unlikely plot, with extreme characters and outrageous jokes, but I like it a lot. The most interesting facet is the lead character suffers from cerebral palsy - he refers to himself as a spastic. Controversial eh?
