I've re-read this book nearly , what, a 100 times? why? Guy Bellamy is maybe the only author I know that can make you laugh out loud at the desparately sorry state some people find themselves in. A beautifully weaved (and funny ... did i say funny? YES) plot containig a very palatable sideways repost to the radically feminist world. Loved it.... (Loved A Village called Sin even more) Your friends will want to steal it!!

Absolutely wonderful book - its fantastic. Read it so many times - but it didn't have a real ending - so I ended up writing to Guy to ask him if he was going to write a sequal - unfortunately he hasn't - what a shame - but I still treasure my signed copy. I love it - so much so - I'm going to Menorca in September to try and find the places he wrote about - but I'm definitely going to Fornells! Actually reading it again at the moment - but they haven't reached Spain for the second time. It must be something to do with the really warm weather!

I agree with the first reviewer. I have read this book scores of times and still re-read it. Excellent characters and some brilliant one-liners. Also, an excellent look at feminism in a pro-male way (where else can you find that! ).

If you can get a copy then do.

This book was trash. Absoloute trash. I.E. no redeeming value. Sure, Nick is funny as a character, but that doens't save this book. The characters are shallow, vain, and, frankly, pathetic. Bellamy kills off the three year old to try to add tragic drama, but as a plot device it suffers terribly - mostly becuase we haven't seen much of the kid in the book, and so we really don't care about him. This book was sad trash - not reccomeneded.
