Fatty O'Leary's Dinner Party by Alexander Mccall Smith
The heroically proportioned Fatty OLeary can normally take life as it comes, but when he and his wife Betty head off to Ireland on a trip of a lifetime, they find that they have left their comfort zone far behind. Calamity and mayhem ensue as one mishap after another befalls the beleaguered couple.'McCall Smith's generous writing and dry humour, his gentleness and humanity, and his ability to evoke a place and a set of characters without caricature or condescension have endeared his books to readers' - The New York Times 'All you can eat platter of humour.. once again McCall Smith doles out an appropriately extra-large helping of fun' - Scotland on Sunday 'A scrumptious, joyous read, stuffed full of sharp wit, laugh out loud frolics and gentle soothing compassion - Completely charming, this is a little gem of a book and an absolute pleasure to read' - Lovereading 'Delicious' - Scottish Field
