** spoiler alert ** Parts of this book were great, especially when in the voice of Robert, a very intelligent 5 year old. The turmoil his father Patrick experiences in relation to several aspects of his life (his marriage, other women, his dying mother), are interesting to watch, but otherwise I found Patrick annoying. His wife, Robert's mother, is even more annoying- essentially giving up her marriage to coddle her children, particularly the youngest Thomas. This book is based on a trued story and, is part of a series of books St. Aubyn wrote. Not sure if I will ever pick up the others or not.
