one great book!

Like the series of the same name, this is truly a gem! Read it, or watch it, I did both and do every few years. Funny, witty, sad, and wonderful - Goodbye Reggie.

A very funny book about a very tragic life.

I think the BBC television shows of Reggie are the funniest TV shows ever, so when I learned that the show was adapted from a book I had to read it. Sometimes a movie is better than the book or vice versa; in this case, I think that both book and TV show are wonderful, each playing to their particular medium's strengths. After my many years working in business, I find Reggie's life to be hauntingly familiar. The humor can be very subtle at times and some people may not get it. I didn't get where I am today without knowing that this is one of the funniest books I've ever read.

One of those books that makes you smile

The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin is the funniest book I have read in a long time. After getting used to the British slang and unusual mood of the book, I was hooked. It takes a while to realize what is going on, and when you do - that is when the situations are funny. The humor is slight and you have to pay attention to get the jokes; especially the insults he gives to his family and co-workers. The ending is hard to accept, untill you realize it is the perfect mix-up to this mans mid-life crisis.
