 Is Harry on the Boat? byColin Butts Orion Books 324 pages 1999 ISBN 0752834584 Reviewed by Faith Leslie - South Africa Colin Butts' book "Is Harry on the Boat?" has been billed as a bestselling cult novel about holiday reps in Ibiza and as such should no doubt appeal to followers of this genre. Young, Free and Single reps promote holidays in Ibiza. We follow the machinations of Alison who has been made Manager as she antagonises and victimises her underlings, in particular Brad who has scruples but is apparently overwhelmed by her craftiness. However, the denouement restores the status quo and Brad proves to be the hero of the moment. Colin Butts describes the uninhibited sexual behaviour of his characters with verve but conveys Brad's qualms about some of the thoughtless and irresponsible attitudes of his fellow reps. A good read for anyone looking for a lighthearted novel. |
