Good, but check your facts
|
I though this was a great book, but i find it so annoying when incorrect facts are quoted. I don't recall Blondie being in the charts at the same time as David Cassidy & the Bay City Rollers, nor do I remember Barbara Bach being in Dukes of Hazzard (again, apparently in the same era) I thought it was Catherine Bach!
Ah well, perhaps I'm just being fussy !

Opposites attract

|
The first few pages of this book had me doubled up as I recognised those little marital nuances that exist between opposites. Hilarious, if a bit too close for comfort at times!

Perceptive, entertaining and funny
|
|
Appleyard perceptively addresses the class divisions which are still so evident in modern society. An entertaining and thoughtful analysis, which makes for an enjoyable read.

Seriously witty, insightful and incisive stuff.
|
|
This is a wickedly funny, perceptive and some may even say polemical study of class and modern marriage - read it and laugh, a lot.

Read this book
|
|
Diana Appleyard writes about universal issues, both small and great which make up our daily lives and which matter to women of my generation (the thirty somethings), in an entertaining and often touching manner. She has great insight and sense of humour.Another wonderful book.
