This is a very entertaining story about family life as viewed through the lens of pornography and test cricket. Sometimes funny, always melancholy and sometimes depressing. Full of moments which ring true even if your not interested in cricket or pornography.
The main problem with this book is that maybe it is slightly too long, it could have said all the same things in less time and not really lost anything. But on the other hand it is sometimes the longer versions of the game which never really quite resolve themselves which are ultimately the more satisfying.
8.5/10
