I wrote something about this book for one of my newspaper columns (mainly because I was so annoyed by it) and thought I'd put the same text up here.Jabberwockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10210195396120573794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8204542.post-30155007179274188922010-06-22T22:49:38.134+05:302010-06-22T22:49:38.134+05:30Ask me if you want to know more about the author. ...Ask me if you want to know more about the author.

Or maybe this book symbolizes the absolute bottom.<br /><br />We have seen way too many painful books like My Friend Sancho posing as thoughtful writing over the last few years.

How can publishers be so dumb? One wonders. It's akin to rollin out B-grade movies to fill in dull seasons in multiplexes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
