Book 69 What A Carve Up by Jonathan Coe

9/10 Very funny, good story with a proper ending. Kind of a satire on the Thatcher years but more than that and definitely worth a read. It's bookended by World War II and the First Gulf War and uses the movie of the same name (with Sid James and Kenneth Connor) as a metaphor. I laughed out loud in the first chapter which doesn't happen very often.
