Tom Sharpe builds on a really diverse career, but his WILT books focus only on the miserable experience of adjuncts at community college level institutions. Those folks will appreciate so many of the nasty things he has to say about administrators and unmotivated students... more than appreciate, they will be snorting, guffawing, and crying out loud at his wit and snarky wisdom.
On the other hand, his treatment of the basic "war of the sexes" theme has already put off one female reader dear to my heart. Be ready for the distaff-side's critical plaints !

Laugh out loud good
I really enjoyed this book, about an un-fulfilled man with murderous fantasies about dealing with his overbearing wife. She turns up missing, setting the poor man off into a series of mistaken directions with the police .
He reminded me , in some ways, of O'Toole's Ignatius J. Reilly, from A Confederacy of Dunces, another man caught and thrown from one misadventure to another. A good British book, but one that most anyone would enjoy.
