Review:
Crammed with incidental pleasures . . . sometimes sad but more frequently hilarious . . . Getting It Right gets it, comically, right. -- Paul Bailey, Evening Standard
From the Back Cover:
Gavin - a shy and sensitive hairdresser in the West End - is, at thirty-one, still a virgin. He's a classic late developer, and he's worried that it's getting too late to develop at all.
Then one night Gavin finds himself at a glamorous penthouse party. Completely out of his comfort zone, he stumbles upon the straight-talking Joan and the waifish Minerva, and suddenly everything begins to change. Over the next fortnight, Gavin might start, at last, to 'get it right'.
'Crammed with incidental pleasures . . . sometimes sad but more frequently hilarious . . . Getting It Right gets it, comically, right' Paul Bailey, Evening Standard
'What fascinates Howard are the lies and truths we tell ourselves in external and internal lives . . . Howard's deft touch is seen time and again' Telegraph
