Summer things - Joseph Connolly

Summer Things, Joseph Connolly's acclaimed and best-selling novel, is now an international film.An unforgettable trip to the further shores of lust, snobbery and adultery, Summer Things is the much-loved comedy by one of Britain's funniest novelists. With a whirlwind plot and characters who let nothing stand between them and pleasure, Summer Things hurtles along with the exhilarating momentum of a roller coaster - unstoppable, startling and hilarious.'This novel achieves all the authors intentions - predominant is the wish to make the reader laugh. Connolly has established himself as a very English comic author, in the tradition of P.G.Wodehouse.' The Times'This is not a book about love, but a book about illicit, breathless, self-absorbed couplings and that kind of panic-ridden snobbery so dear to the English middle-class mentality, all described with gusto and distaste . . . observant and amusing.' Literary Review'Excellent . . . viciously funny.' Daily Telegraph
