Penguin presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of How to be Good by Nick Hornby, read by Claire Higgins.

According to her own complex moral calculations, Katie Carr has earned her affair. She's a doctor, after all, and doctors are decent people, and on top of that, her husband David is the self-styled Angriest Man in Holloway. But when David suddenly becomes good - properly, maddeningly, give-away-all-his-money good - Katie's sums no longer add up, and she is forced to ask herself some very hard questions. Nick Hornby's brilliant new novel, a No. 1 bestseller in the UK and Ireland, offers a painfully funny account of modern marriage and parenthood, and asks that most difficult of questions: what does it mean to be good?

Eleştirmen yorumları

Hilarious, sophisticated, compulsive . . . a bitingly clever novel of ideas, on a subject almost nobody else has written about - how would a totally good person get on in the modern world?
A dark espresso-length comedy that nobody else could have written
The writing is so funny and the set-pieces so brilliant
Perhaps the most poised piece of writing Hornby has yet produced . . . only this writer has the wit and the stringency to take on this easy comedy and draw compelling, even universal pathos from it
Brilliantly funny
Pins you in your armchair and won't let go . . . How to be Good? How to be bloody marvellous more like
It does exactly what it says on the cover. Hornby's prose is artful and effortless, his spiky wit as razored as a number-two cut
Vintage Nick Hornby. Very funny and very clever, and packed with wit and brilliance

Listened to this straight after Juliet Naked and a little disappointed. It was okaaaaaay. Though at one point near the beginning I thought I might throw my phone at the wall of I heard the phrase "Good Person" again.

Not my favourite Nick Hornby

The book started well with good story line but, after about chapter 5, just turned into a series of ramblings that didn’t seem to be going anywhere. Listened to these ramblings for a couple of hours before realising that the author had run out of any real story to tell.

A promising start

So I have mixed feelings about this book. being a fan of his other novel, I had high hopes for this one and in all fairness to him it's a very good story and a good concept and good character developement however he lost me at the end in so much that It felt it finished very quickly and flat. nothing happened, the energy that he had in the beginning just faded, so I left feeling deflated and bored for the last 3 chapters. probably won't read again.

Nick Hornby just wanted to finish the book quickly
