This review is from: The mammaries of the welfare state

Let me confess that I couldn't go beyond a few chapters...this book was funny in parts but the author does not know when to stop. A hallmark of a good satire is that it must be short and this book is anything but.

Am a big fan of 'English, August' and was thoroughly disappointed by this sequel. Instead of picking this, go read 'English, August' again.
