This is a light-hearted, hilarious insight into the minds of young men growing up, carelessly drinking to excess, doing themselves physical harm, recovering and then starting all over again. Kevin lets us hear his innermost thoughts as he pursues the lust of his grey life, Karen Fletcher. The kind of thoughts many of us bury rather than voice when faced with stupidity, unreasonableness, moronically unfair treatment or drunken, twisted fantasy. Trapped in the stultifying office world of conveyancing at Mayfield, Wiley, Pratt, Whitfield, Scott, Emerson, Henderson and Smith, a firm with too many senior partners, he longs for a meaningful relationship with the opposite sex. Actually that sentence was too long; he longs for sex. Kevin innocently contrives to do everything wrong, from getting badly concussed to being kidnapped, trapped in a taxi, a toilet and hospital waiting rooms. But not all at once, that's impossible. He suffers several injuries along the way, many physical but just as many psychological. Yet still he persists. Despite this Karen does respond and they 'get together' and begin to plan a life of bliss; a wedding, a honeymoon. All the normal things that normal couples normally will. But of course nothing in Kevin’s world is straightforward and mishaps occur, both by his own thoughtlessness and that of unthinking, uncaring, drunken, drugged or just plain ignorant and unreasonable others. Reviewers have said '...undoubtedly one of the best books of its type that I have read for some time...quite exceptional ability as a writer; the style has a vitality and freshness about it...an excellent narrative technique that engages the reader instantly...really superb...a very fine example of a book in the humour genre...very professional book of the highest calibre...thoroughly entertaining from beginning to end...great laugh-out-loud imagery...superbly written...' Just buy it, read it and laugh. Or weep.
