Tony Parsons Man and Wife will make you laugh, it will bring a lump to your throat. An unpretensious book that follows the life of an ordinary person making mistakes anyone could make, dealing with the consequences, going through all the emotions that any human being would feel and attempting to make sense of it all. Having said that, one would then expect the book to be boring and ordinary, but thats the magic. Its sheer simplicity and honesty is captivating. It is a most powerful book.

when i got this book it was on a saturday..and it it was on a Saturday when Cyd finally made up her mind so i feel that there is a special connection to me and this book. This is one of the books that u cant forget the characters because u turn to relate them to real life and Peter Pearson really made me to learn so many things about being a parent. I look forward to get the copy of man and wife and i am confident that ill find the copy nice as man and boy.

This book is brilliant, Im still reading it and Im near 2 the end and cant w8 2 c what happens! I found this book in a corner of a shelve at home and decided to read it 2 c whats it about. I expected to be a book just 4 adults but I think its a great book 4 teens aswell because I really enjoyed it and Im 14. I love the way its easy to follow and how Tony really draws u in2 the book, when u read it u can feels some connection between all the characters coz they r so realalistic! The problems in the book r what most couples r going through nowadays and I think many ppl can really relate 2 it. There r many things I can relate 2 the book myself.The book is packed with emotion , there r both funny parts and some sad bits to the novel 2 whic makes it superb. Tony really constructed the novel well, His style of writing is remarkable. There is no moment in the book that is boring nor drags on 2 long which is why it makes me want 2 keep reading it on and on which keeps me awake 4 so long at night. Im definetley going 2 read another 1 of Tonys book after I finished this coz it really moved me. I really recomend this book 2 any1!!=)
