Michael
Adams shares a flat with three other men in their late twenties. Days
are spent lying in bed, playing computer games and occasionally doing a
bit of work. And then, when he feels like it, he crosses the river and
goes back to his unsuspecting wife and children.
For Michael is
living a double life - he escapes from the exhausting misery of babies
by telling his wife he has to work through the night or travel up north.
And while she is valiantly coping on her own, he is just a few miles
away in a secret flat, doing all the things that most men with small
children can only dream about. He thinks he can have it all, until is
deception is inevitably exposed...
The Best a Man Can Get is
written with the hilarious eye for detail that sent John O'Farrell's
first book, Things Can Only Get Better, to the top of the bestseller
lists. It is a darkly comic confessional that is at once compelling,
revealing and very, very funny.
