5.0 out of 5 stars Sharpeomaniac, Oct 27 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Great Pursuit (Paperback)
All I have to say is that while reading a Tom Sharpe book in the subway you'll probably end up missing your stop. Accidentally because you are so engrossed, or purposely because you don't want to put the book down. Watch out, you might end up in an area you don't want to visit!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Just as good as his other books, Jun 19 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Great Pursuit (Paperback)
This was the first Tom Sharpe's book I read. It was so funny! I loved it so much - I had to buy his other books. This one is definitely one of my favorites.

3.0 out of 5 stars Restrained, for sharpe, Aug 11 1999
By ensiform (Dallas, TX USA) - See all my reviews
The story of a publisher, Frensic, who convinces an unimaginative would-be author, Peter Piper, to pretend authorship of a wildly successful, pornographic novel. It's a funny book, though not riotously so: more witty and arch, or getting its humor by deflating stereotypes. Its plot is devious and twisted, but though there's sex and a riot and some explosions, it seems restrained compared to other Sharpe books. I must say I don't care much for the abrupt, highly unsatisfying ending. Start reading Sharpe with Wilt or Blott.
