Meltdown door Ben Elton

Ben Elton gaat achteruit. Dat is toch wel de conclusie na het lezen van dit boek. Het gegeven, de ineenstorting van de financiële markt en de gevolgen daarvan voor een groep yuppen, is mooi gekozen. De uitwerking is echter onder de maat. Na wat, tijdelijke, ellende gaat het de groep weer goed en hebben ze het familieleven herontdekt...........Een Elton in zijn gloriejaren had er veel meer van gemaakt.

Hartstikke beroemd door Ben Elton

Geweldige parodie op alle big brother klonen & reality programma's.
Ben Elton schrijft met veel humor en vergroot gebeurtenissen uit. Erg grappig en nog steeds actueel ook al is dit boek al een paar jaar geleden geschreven.
