4.0 out of 5 stars Why not 5 stars?, December 29, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Have the Men Had Enough? (Hardcover)
This book is funny, touching and very realistically written - and well written too! Grandma in Had the Men had Enough reminds me very much of old people with senile dementia I knew in real life - all those extremely comical situations mixed with tragedy and insights into the personality the aged used to be. A must for anybody with old family members (who not?). It makes you look at old age in a new and (emotionally) better informed way, a more pensive way maybe. Given the subject the book is not at all heavy reading, it is rather light and straightforward. The only drawback to me lies in the construction of the novel (one star off for that is a lot, I know). The story is told by a mother (Grandma's daughter-in-law) and her daughter (Grandma's grandchild) alternatively. They give a kind of diary account of everything that happens with Grandma - but almost no word about the rest of their lives. A very lively way to tell a story, but it has also its unnatural aspects one perceives only after a while or after having finished the book. Nevertheless, Had the Men had Enough is very much worth reading.

4.0 out of 5 stars A great read, December 14, 1999
By 
This review is from: Have the Men Had Enough? (Hardcover)
I thought that Have the Men had enough was a very funny and emotional book. It was well written . Although the book does not have the same action and compelling drama as some, it does keep you laughing and crying the whole way through.

5.0 out of 5 stars A 5 star rated book!, January 12, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Have the Men Had Enough? (Hardcover)
Have the men had enough is one of the best books I have ever read...it made me laugh and cry and I felt it depicted the nightmare of dementia within a family briliantly. Margaret Forster is a very astute woman.
