About this listen

When philandering Sir Giles Lynchwood decides it's time to wriggle free of his monumentally unattractive wife, Lady Maud, he knows divorce is out of the question. He can't leave her and keep her cash; a reversionary clause on her ancestral home, Handyman Hall, has taken care of that. Lady Maud, for her own special reasons, is also dying to see the back of Sir Giles. Sir Giles dreams of motorways ploughing through the front door of Handyman Hall, of compulsory purchase orders, of loot and no wife. Lady Maud bellows. Blott the gardener watches from his inner sanctum, the greenhouse, and listens...and waits.©1985 Tom Sharpe (P)2014 Audible, Inc. Literature & Fiction Funny Witty Feel-Good Marriage

Funny as hell

I love david suchet's part, he sounds like a simpleton hercule Poirot. Great pace to the story and as I said funny as hell

As good as I remember

I first read this book over 30 years ago and loved it then. Listening to David Suchet brought all the characters to life exactly as I had imaged them to be. It's a ridiculous look at life and an antidote to reality.
