Product Description
In May 2005 Penguin will publish 70 unique titles to celebrate the company's 70th birthday. The titles in the Pocket Penguins series are emblematic of the renowned breadth of quality of the Penguin list and will hark back to Penguin founder Allen Lane's vision of good books for all'. When Penguin published THE GIRL'S GUIDE TO HUNTING AND FISHING in 1999, it was an immediate bestseller and praised by critics for its unique voice. In this piece, Jane tells us about her relationship with a man who will never use her name.

Format:Paperback
This is a very short book, 58 pages, which was originally published as part of the book The Girls' Guide to Hunting in 1999. It tells the tale of the author's conflicts with an unsatisfactory job, a dying father and an alcoholic boyfriend. Do not let this put you off- it is not a 'woe is me' misery memoir. Bank is very witty author who doesn't do self-pity. My only complaint is that this book definitely feels like an excerpt. It is a very good advert for the full length version, a lot happens in the 58 pages, but I felt it was not a stand-alone book.
