I really wish they wouldn't put quotes on books telling you how 'hilarious' they are. They are never hilarious. (It might be me of course. This is amusing I suppose? It didn't make me laugh though.)
I like Lewyka's writing a lot, she's very good at creating lots of complex characters all just slightly missing the point of what the other characters are saying. Lots of the people in this - Clara, Doro and Marcus, and Serge, in particular, are 'nice but a bit annoying' so quite like real people. Impressive research, as well, about both banking/trading and 80s alternative lifestyles.
Plus this one doesn't have the almost unbearable sadness of some bits of Two Caravans.
