Why read it?
1 author picked Poor Table Manners as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
The laughs start with the title – Spoiler alert! The book is set in Cape Town in the shadow of Table Mountain – and keep on coming. It’s the third madcap adventure with Dawson (for whom the word ‘hapless’ might have been invented) and Lucy (ditto, but for the word ‘resourceful’) and is written in the same tongue-in-cheek, witty style of Steve Sheppard’s earlier books. There’s a rich cast of characters and a gripping, fast-paced plot that kept me entertained and reading on. All in all, a glorious roller coaster of a book.
