The Peculiar Memories of Thomas Penman
This is an excruciatingly funny book about an astonishingly dysfunctional family. It is about a boy and his grandpa, life and death, sex and hate, dog's meat and cancer. It is also about pornography, enemas, Morse codes, puberty, secrets, God and loathing. And it is about love. It is also funnier, more painful, more touching, more sexy and more profound than the funny, painfuul, touching, sexy, profound book you might have expected from the author of WITHNAIL AND I.
