Another humorous collection of essays by Barry, this book
rages against David Beckham, discusses the delights and dangers of Russia and
Brazil, explains the superiority of soccer and celebrates the birth of his
first grandchild. I thought that this
was less funny than some of his other books and little more introspective. However, I still enjoyed the book as it is
well written and still includes some laid-back humor within the stories. People who have liked Barry’s other books
will probably like this one also, but I wouldn’t give this to someone new to
Barry’s books who is looking for humor.
Several of his other books have made me laugh out loud and this just
wasn’t that kind of book for me.
