Baddiel, David – Whatever Loves Means
Baddiel’s first novel, Time for Bed, was very much the Comedian writes first novel, type novel (similar, in many ways, to Ben Elton’s novels).
Whatever Love Means is more grown up.
It starts with the main character committing adultery with his best friend’s wife for the first time on the day that Princess Diana died.
The following story encapsulates that time; the way we thought then; the way we changed our thinking afterwards.
For me, the best thing about the book is that I have discovered that I am not alone – there are other people who dislike the royal family as much as I do.
Now, where did I put that Guillotine?
All the best
