At first I didn't know what to make of the narrative structure of this book. Then, it grew on me. Finally, I enjoyed this book very much.But then, I turned the book over and glanced down at the blurbs. "Comic drive..." "...hilarious..." "...rollicking adventure... hysterically funny."
Did I read the right book? Was there some weird printing defect that put a different novel's sales quotes on the back cover?
I didn't laugh once. But I did like the book. Then again, it is set in Australia, so maybe there's some cultural humor that I simply didn't get.
