Has anyone read THE BEASTLY BEATITUDES OF BALTHAZAR B by JP Donleavy ?
I'm about a third of the way through but it's quickly becoming one of my favourite books, it's not often that I laugh out loud when reading, last time I can remember since Balthazar was reading General Lucifers reprographic horror stories.
I won't give much away as I wouldn't want to spoil it for anyone, all I'll say is that the writing style is like a cross between 'The Narrow Dog to Carcassonne' and 'Confederacy of Dunces' and equally if not even funnier than both of them.
