NB! My copy has a different cover.

From the back:

"A successful sitcom writer with plenty of money, a stable marriage, a platonic mistress and a flash car, Laurence 'Tubby' Passmore has more reason than most to be happy. Yet neither physiotherapy nor aromatherapy, cognitive-behaviour therapy or acupuncture can cure his puzzling knee pain or his equally inexplicable mid-life angst.

As Tubby's life fragments under the weight of his self-obsession, he embarks - via Kierkegaard, strange beds from Rummidge to Tenerife to Beverly Hills, a fit of literary integrity and memories of his 1950s South London boyhood - on a picaresque quest for his lost contentment..."

A fleamarket find.

Thanks for checking in :) Happy reading – and happy travels!

Picked it up at Helsinki Airport on 2017-07-10 before my flight. Only got around to reading it now. So far, I like it. Will release it back into the wild probably at Arabianranta library in Helsinki at some point.

The book was seen in the exchange shelf of the Library of Arabianranta today. Nice to see an oldie still on the road.

The book never left the library, but I am officially releasing it there in case somebody is interested. Libraries are closing again for three weeks due to corona. This hardly is a problem for bookcrossers, but ordinary people might not have enough to read at home.
