Query: Patience pays off

The start of the book was a bit confusing,but that could be due to my lack of understanding of english slang and not Mr. Robinson's writting. With patience, I managed to emerse myself into Thomas Penman's world and was thoroughly rewarded and highly entertained. I found the story to be along the same lines as a Tom Sharpe novel with its bawdy humour and its depiction of human feelings. I do hope that Mr. Robinson shares with us a second novel in the near future.
