Awful Book

I hate to agree with Vivienne Westwood, but I have just read 'A Partial Indulgence' and it is fairly grim. One cannot feel any sympathy for any of the characters, all without exception totally dismal, the 'action' darts about all over the place which of course is fashionable these days, it is full of revolting descriptions which are highly over-detailed and unrealistic, and I had to force myself to finish it in an attempt to be fair and read it all. Basically it is pretentious rubbish. Described in the Metro as 'funny' I could not find an amusing line in it. It will probably be reviewed everywhere as 'brilliant'!
