5.0 out of 5 stars More Important (and a better read) than Catcher In The Rye!, 18 Jul 2007
By R. P. Moye (Cumbria, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Wisdom should be witty. Wit should have wisdom. This book has buckets of both. Redirect your teenage years now before it's too late! And God knows the world needs plenty more wit and wisdom if we're not going to go the way of the dodo.

Non spoiler plot synopsis? Well, it's about a teenager, his pal and the girl he has his eye on. And his determination to find out what life's all about and discover old u.t. (ultimate truth). The progress of the plot is interspersed with varous brief quotations from different documents written after he has passed on and only his legend remains.

One of those books you never forget.

5.0 out of 5 stars My Favourite, 5 April 2006
By T. A. Grant (Worthing, West Sussex United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is my favourite book of all time...

Read it when i was about 17...on the train going to teach guitar in brighton (the arrogance of youth...noone told me i didnt' know enough to teach it at 17. i was 30 before i realised that!)

I couldnt' find it for years, and the copy i managed to get from here is even better, cos it looks like a real amatuer affair.

the book....what can i say. I never managed the dice man, or any other of rhienhardts dice books. tried, but found them trite.

something about the philosophy in this book just rang for me...or maybe just the accurate description of teenage priarpism. maybe i recognised it, being 17 when i read it?

trying to write this makes me realise...you can't review this book (well, not when your pissed at 1:30 in the morning). its just great. you have to suspend your disbelief, and accept that lying is a useful skill...

buy it and have fun

TG
