This story brought me immense joy. I laughed a lot and had to try and explain the jokes to my husband when he asked what I was laughing at. I feel like it was just what I needed to read, considering everything at the moment.
Yes, this book does contain outdated views (which is understandable considering that it is set in the 60s) but they are contradicted and by the end, people are shown to be changing their thinking.
It was really nice to read a book from home. I'm not from where the book is set but it was lovely to read the Scottish speech in this story.
I recommended this to multiple people while reading and I feel the same upon finishing. It's a lovely, strange, and funny story. Give it a shot!
