Review: EATING DIAMOND PIE by David Thorpe

This novel reminds me of my friend Davo. I don't know that there's a standard British style, but it reds so much like Davo's that I could almost believe Davo wrote it.  The fact that he sent me an email while I was reading Thorpe's book just reinforced that.

This book was finny. The part with the hornets and the bathroom fan was hilarious, been in retrospect. This definitely wasn't a "Christian" novel, but it was irreverent and had more sex and profanity than I'd hoped, but far less than I'd feared. In this respect, too, it was Veddy Blitish.

Altogether, I liked this book, probably far more than I should have. I think my friend Davo would, too.
