Finished reading it last night.
Very good. Enjoyed it.
Forget the Cloudstreet, this is The Great Australian Novel.
But I wonder.
I want my wife to read it because I like her to enjoy what I enjoy, but I think she will just be grossed out. Not really into scatological humor.
I want to send it to my brother, who used to own a porn theater.
But I am wondering how much non-strutters would enjoy it.
He doesn't know that Jungle Groove means James Brown or any of the other record collecting references.
He wouldn't get the Stinky Dave and Leo Sayer jokes.
My question is, would a non-strutter enjoy?
