This short story was fun to read and I would say it would appeal to boys/men perhaps more than the female gender. There is lots of black/toilet humour which the author uses well, in a confident way. The narrative is broken up nicely by some superb illustrations which really suit the text and convey a special atmosphere for the reader which is both unique and quirky. Reading this book felt like I was doing something new, so thumbs up for that.
The story tells of a boy who has next to nothing but is left everything by his uncle. It's a life changing event which alters our little hero's whole existence, especially his relationships with his family and his God-awful mother. There are laughs on every page and a totally unique writing style which engages you from the beginning and doesn't let go.
Mr Probert obviously has a good, if somewhat disgusting, sense of humour (and I use that word in the best possible sense). There are references to dead bodies, poo... etc etc But somehow the words fit the storyline and flow without ever giving offence.
All in all an enjoyable read. A few commas missing here and there but a book I would rec as a light, fun read for those not easily offended who like to laugh at the world.… (mais)
