The Old Romantic
Autor Louise Deanen Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 apr 2011
There's just one problem.
His family want nothing to do with him. His upwardly mobile son Nick hasn't seen him in fifteen years - and doesn't want to be reminded of the miserable old man he escaped. But Ken is nothing if not dogged. Whether he likes it or not, Ken's going to remind him of exactly what Nick has been missing ... And who he really is.

Dark, scurrilous and richly comic. There is so much to treasure in this terrific book, but its deepest joy is the sharp, perceptive writing
Dean is able to demonstrate her unobtrusive skill as the creator of comic set-pieces...painfully funny
Very appealing...so vivid are the quintessentially British characters and the snappy, well-observed dialogue. Delightful, eccentric
Dean's observations have a lyrical intensity few can match
A warm-hearted comedy of bad manners
Dean writes with beautifully controlled clarity about family ties, social class, the generation gap and the vanished England of the past. She's extremely funny, but also humane and moving
Sharply observed
Compassionate and amusing
