    <body><![CDATA[I somehow made it through This Other Eden, but I was helped by being on a bus in Brazil at the time and having finished the other books I had with me. It really isn't Elton's best work, mostly because it's far too much of a rant and, consequently, isn't very funny.

    <body><![CDATA[Wow!  I'm not sure whether to recommend this book or not.  At times it was hilarious. At times is was terribly scary and sad. Ben Elton is dead-on in so many ways.  His understanding of human nature and people's choices is amazing. Throughout the whole book I wasn't sure whether to laugh or cry. ]]></body>
