Grrrr!
Review of The Political Animal - Jeremy Paxman by  DoubleFantasy11

Advantages: Informative and entertaining
Disadvantages: Slow in places

...-balanced and completely avoids taking sides, which is refreshing, and serves as a reminder that no matter how often I get annoyed by how useless my MP appears (I didn’t vote for him), I probably couldn’t do his job. There are undoubtedly a lot of problems in politics and Jeremy Paxman helps shed light on a lot of these – as well as highlighting the difficulties of actually being a politician.

Advantages: Challenging and Entertaining
Disadvantages: Some people may be offended by it's contents

...curiously lacking in any real emotion until his holidays abroad. Here there is an abandon that he's not known before and mixed with the soft drug abuse, he conveys it boldly. Most of the contents of his diary in this book are kept to a minimum, with John Lahr running a commentary throughout, justifying the reasons he had for including the excerpts that are there. He details the arguments and comments in his life with his partner, Kenneth, whose mental state was becoming more unstable. He was finding his relationship stifling and stale. Kenneth felt more like a mother to Joe, and a clingy one at that. Joe's need for sex was at complete odds with his partner's and it made him constantly seek out dangerous situations, some of which are recalled in here in detail. As a reader you can see where all of this is leading, but John Lahr does a supreme... Read review
