romaincm Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Hej, I have just finished the three books of David Nicholls ("One Day", "The Understudy" and "Starter for Ten") and I would like to read another book of the same type (light and funny I would say). I'm not a native speaker and so I'm looking for a book easy to read (I tried Howard Jacobson, "Who's sorry now" but I could not really understand the funny parts). Please let me know if you have any suggestions. I would prefer any type of fictions. Thank you in advance, Romain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habeebi Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 How about Nick Hornby 'About a Boy' or 'High Fidelity'. Those two are very straight forward and really entertaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtz Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 The funniest books I have read are the Feng Shui Detective novels of Yuri Vittachi. But just as funny are Pool and Its Role in Asian Communism and The Coroner's Lunch, which are both by Colin Cotterill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
