An all-time favourite and one I am always glad to re-read. It is beautifully written, it depicts the time to an almost hyper-realistic degree, and there isn't a dull moment from start to finish. I wish women had a more active role in it instead of being mainly used to show how adventurous and 'successful' the men are, but, again, it does reflect the time almost too well.
