Product Details

Product Description

From the Back Cover

“Tom Sharpe is in top form… outrageously funny. Left-wing academics, right-wing capitalists, true-blue country gentry, workers, peasants, police and lawyers – all take custard pies in the face in this boisterous knockabout farce.”
—Listener

5.0 out of 5 stars Hysterically Funny!, Jan 10 2003
This review is from: Ancestral Vices (Paperback)
Introduced to Tom Sharpe's work by a Brit friend, I can't get enough of this amazing author! "Ancestral Vices" literally made my cry with laughter. Yapp's horrifying experience with the "Ablution Bath" sent me into gales of giggles, as did the run amok motorized wheelchair scenario. Lord Petrefact, Willie Coppett, the sex toy factory...all of it was enough to make a cat laugh. Sharpe is warped, twisted, and totally delightful! Simply, hysterically funny!

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Sharpe one, Dec 19 2002
By T West (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ancestral Vices (Paperback)
Tom Sharpe is the most hilarious writer. Ancestral vices is another piece of mad cap mayhem from the master.Fast paced laugh out loud parts. Its always one thing after another with Tom sharpe. Left-wing academics(Yapp)put up against,right-wing capitalists(the Petrefacts),throw in a sex toy factory a bunch of country bumpkins,and dwarves and this is what you get. Like I said total hilarious mayhem.

5.0 out of 5 stars Funny without doubt, Oct 21 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Ancestral Vices (Paperback)
This book is funny - if you can stand grown-up humor and aren't one of those sexophobic weirdos. And besides being hillariously funny (had to laugh out loud just thinking about it), it is very highly intelligent, massively satiric, thrilling and thoroughly British. Not too intellectual, but not for dimwits either. If you don't like this book you are probably dead.
