Before Getting Rid of Gil & Josh and About a Boat Trip, a Ho
Before Getting Rid of Gil & Josh and About a Boat Trip, a Ho
About a Boat Trip, a Hold Up, a Strip Show and You can be seen as a latter-day Brief Encounter, occurring some forty years later, in 1986. It concerns Stella McCabe, an attractive middle-aged woman who is thinking of leaving her husband and becoming the sort of person she would like herself to be - independent and far less conventional. Her world is diverted when she meets a man of half her age who turns out to be a Chippendale-type stripper - and, ridiculously, starts to fall in love with him. Is Vince the catalyst she needs or can a selfish husband undergo a change of heart?
Both books are lively, entertaining, and transport the reader to a world of light-hearted fiction, and once begun, will grip its reader until the final pages have been turned.
Praise for Stephen Benatar's previous works:
"A masterpiece...matchlessly clever...wholly unique" - John Carey, Literary Critic
"Benatar writes with wit and humour about subjects most writers do not tackle - ageing, age, the frequent nastiness of family life." - Doris Lessing
"With this marvellous book, poetry and character return to the English novel." - The Times Literary Supplement
