5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful 13 Feb 2010
Format:Paperback
Very, very enjoyable. Clever, amusing, and terribly poignant in places, this was a very worthwhile purchase that I would certainly recommend to anyone considering buying it. Keith Waterhouse brilliantly captures the oft-inebraited voice of Jeffrey Bernard, and his transition between the multitude of other characters (intended to be played by just four actors) is expertly done. I personally saw many similarities between Bernard and the title character of "Withnail and I", and would bet that, if you enjoyed that, you'll enjoy this.

1.0 out of 5 stars Jeffrey Bernard is Unwell 10 Nov 2012
By John
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This was intended as a present but it resembled a rag-mag so flimsy was it and so not given to the intended recipient. Page for page it's probably the most expensive paperback I've ever bought - 40 odd pages for a tenner. It would be cheaper to photocopy. Don't waste your money.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful, funny and thoughtful play 14 Aug 2000
Format:Paperback
I've just gotten my copy of "Jeffrey Bernard is unwell" and now it counts already to my "all time favourites". The play about the life and writing of the later journalist Jeffrey Bernard isn't only a lot of fun, but a lot of interesting insights in a character who lived probably a sometimes "messy" life, but nevertheless one which showed him as a man who could stand on hisself.

Keith Waterhouse gave Jeffrey Bernard a voice which is a lot more then only "slang", but witty, human, sometimes very hilarious, sometimes melancholic and sad - the voice of a true person who to meet in Waterhouse's play was a great pleasure for me.
