Review

‘Perfect’ Caroline Gascoigne, Books for Christmas -- Sunday Times

· ‘A brilliant one-off in which everyday matters are skewered with deadpan style and deadly accuracy.’ -- Sunday Times

From the Publisher

Invaluable advice on questions such as:

What are the consequences of hitting a jellyfish with a spade?

Should you cross your bridge when someone else is burning it?

In breaststroke what do you do with your head when’s it’s underwater?

And most crucial of all, what is the best way of establishing a queue when you are the first person in it?
