5.0 out of 5 stars Where there's a Will, 19 Jan 2005
By Vivienne Blake (Cerisy la Salle France) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Where There's a Will (Paperback)
This collection of reminiscences and wisdom, from wit and polymath John Mortimer never fails to delight. Far from being your typical 'grumpy old man' he demonstrates impeccable common sense, and frequently a very modern attitude, saying exactly what we would have liked to have said about such topics as the idiocy of politicians and political correctness. This book is peppered with poetic commentary and good advice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Present laughter, 17 Nov 2003
This review is from: Where There's a Will (Hardcover)
Summary: open doors, open minds, open hearts - buy it now.

From the opening with the sound of his father's laughter echoing in his children (and the opening of the toilet door in Nice's Hotel Negresco), we trip lightly along - or so we think.

Beware the reader who thinks to dip in and out, for this book is full of hooks and barbs - bites and bullets.

Whilst Mortimer reserves, but hardly holds in reserve, his rapier for those who knew better and who should have done better for others, there is also much to soak up the blood and to absorb the reader. From Atheism, beliefs and creeds to Utopia, Wilde and Yeats, by way of Thatcher and the pursuit of happiness, we (or at least this reader did) gain an introduction if perhaps not quite an insight to Sir John Mortimer and something of his great wisdom and humour and the love gained and given.

I enjoyed this book hugely and have tried not to annoy my wife, too much, by referring to and quoting from it. But I liked it and took inspiration - and will share it.

But I will not share it yet - I urge you to buy your own and more for presents.

Now to go back and read the books and topics prompted by such an enjoyable read.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Book, 4 Jan 2006
By Alexander McCooke (Northern Ireland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Where There's a Will (Paperback)
John Mortimer is someone who has truly lived life. He has seen (as described in ever more witty and delightful stories that pepper the book) as much as there is to see, and from his breadth of experiences over times, places, and persons, we receive the distilled wisdom of almost 90 years of a great mind on this planet. Priceless.
