The Best A Man Can Get by John O'farrell
For Michael is living a double life - he escapes from the exhausting misery of babies by telling his wife he has to work through the night or travel up north. And while she is valiantly coping on her own, he is just a few miles away in a secret flat, doing all the things that most men with small children can only dream about.
Punchline fuelled, relentless humour..I don't think a woman is going to get much closer to the workings of a man's mind than this. Giggling several times a page with plenty of out-loud laughs is guaranteed. Is John O'Farrell funny? Very * Daily Mirror *
So funny because it rings true... Packed with painfully well-observed jokes * The Times *
A hilarious confessional narrative. This wickedly observed page-turner lets bachelor-nostalgia joyride to its absurd conclusion... Piquant and irreverently sardonic * Literary Review *
This is SO good... so insightful about men, women, love and parenthood that you read every page with a wince of recognition. Fab, fab, fab -- India Knight
Excellent... Things Can Only Get Better will make you laugh out loud -- Angus Deayton
