![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Moist clearly has his work cut out for him.Īs with most of Pratchett’s work, Going Postal is full of humour: that kind of humour that hits the nail on the head. Once it does, the results are a little dismaying for those of us hooked on sending postcards: mail hasn’t been delivered for years, and mostly lies around in heaps in the building, threatening avalanches and blocking off rooms. Going Postal's main character is Moist van Lipwig, a con artist given the “option” of turning over a new leaf and breathing life back in Ankh-Morpork’s postal service, which means we start the book with his “execution”, and it takes a while to get round to the post office part. As promised, I picked up Sir Terry Pratchett's Going Postal, a book from his Discworld series which stands alone. Last time I was discussing Helene Hanff’s 84 Charing Cross Road… and now it’s time for something completely different. Hi folks! I’m back again with another of my book reviews. ![]()
