Paradise Postponed Audiobook (Unabridged)

" Very good. Extra dry humor. "

" Ok, not as good as his Rumpole writing "

" John Mortimer at his best. The Rise and rise of Leslie Titmuss. Satirical, ironic and very funny. Wonderful. "

" it was alright - but wasn't what i expected. found it difficult to keep track of the characters. was expecting some humor but there was none. "

" This book is funny, in a slightly understated, British way. There's mystery, intrigue, and even a little romance. The author and characters, like many Brits, are obsessed with class. All in all, it was well-written and enjoyable to read, if not very deep. "

" This was a fun book. If you enjoy the mysteries performed on PBS, you will like this. "

" A surprise find in the Luang Prabang used book store. So funny and gentle and mocking of England. Reminded me of my mother and made me laugh at British family life. I loved it. "

" Very funny story about a disfunctional family fighting over a will. Highly recommended. "

" Not as good as his Rumpole books but still a very good read. Interesting insight into British politics. Recommended. "

" Much as I like John Mortimer - especially his character of Horace Rumpold - I found this one had difficulty in holding my attention - about two chapters from the end I still didn't care about the characters or what happened to them - I never finished it. "

" This novel may best be enjoyed as the first in the Rapstone Chronicles trilogy which includes TITMUS REGAINED and THE SOUND OF TRUMPETS. "

" Tot mijn verbazing is mijn smaak drastisch veranderd. Bij eerste lezing in de jaren '80 vond ik dit een geestige politieke satire, nu vind ik het langdradig en voorspelbaar. Is dit toegenomen wijsheid mijnerzijds of seniliteit? "

" A fun British satire with a somewhat confusing cast of characters. Nothing more, nothing less. The second half, with its bit of sleuthing, is more engaging than the first. "

" Great British satire, moved very quickly for a long novel. An enjoyable, funny, witty read. "
