Ben Elton

The desperate, humiliating, hilarious, and unromantic efforts of Sam and Lucy to conceive a child become fodder for Sam's new screenplay about their problem, a screenplay that could make Sam a success--or destroy his marriage. Original.

Inconceivable

Humour. Lucy desperately wants a baby. Sam is determined to write a hit movie. The problem is that both their efforts seem to be unfruitfu- l. What Sam and Lucy are about to go through is absolutely inconceivable. The question is, can their love survive?

'Unfinished' because I asked myself if, with all the books in all the world that I want to read, I really want to waste my time reading another mediocre Ben Elton. And the answer was 'no, I do not'. 

Fifty pages revealed nothing but a tedious storyline with unsympathetic and dislikeable characters. And, once again, Elton ruins a potentially excellent story with bland and unimaginative delivery.
