Book description
'Men, according to legend, want only one thing, are deceivers ever,
are not interested in gossip, like a cosy armful, need two eggs, and
seldom wash behind their ears.'
Whatever their grading, Super Man or Slob, Jilly submits all men to
remorseless scrutiny. In public and in private, home, office or bed,
none escapes her beady eye - from painters to politicians, guardsmen
to gigolos, stockbrokers to sex-fiends, this is Jilly Cooper's
brilliantly funny guide to the male sex.
Jilly Cooper comes from Yorkshire and was educated at Godolphin
School in Sailsbury. For twenty-five years she lived in London and for
thirteen of them she wrote for the
Sunday Times,
during which time her column was one of the most widely read features in
the paper. In 1982 she moved to Gloucestershire and began writing a
column for the
Mail on Sunday
. She makes frequent appearances on television and has done many radio
broadcasts.
