Two Gentlemen Sharing

By William Corlett

Book Overview

Bellingford is a sleepy village set amid gently rolling countryside. Whatever scandals may occur there, they always take place behind closed doors and carefully laundered lace curtains. In short, Bellingford is a typical English village. That is until the news breaks that the Hall House has been sold at last and the rumour starts that the new occupants are to be 'two gentlemen, sharing'. With the arrival of Rich and Bless - newly in love and eager for domesticity - the scene is set for mayhem and uproar. And with Rich on a business trip to the States, Bless is plunged into a vortex of events that leaves him gasping for the cosy domesticity of Earl's Court on a Saturday night.... TWO GENTLEMEN SHARING is a roller coaster ride through the sexual mores of life, a comedy of manners that spirals from gentle humour to the heights of farce.

Liked it

I enjoyed the book once I got into it. Serveral interesting charactors and situtations.

a good funny story

I bought this book after reading "Now and Then". At first I was a little disappointed, "this is not the Corlett I know" I thought. Then I started laughing. This comedy which goes from humor to farce, is irresistible. It reminds me of the Italian "commedia dell'arte" or the British "comedy of manners". Funny characterization, farcical situation make of this novel one of the funniest thing I ever read.

two gentleman sharing

A total HOOT! I laughed out loud numerous times, could not put it down, and even woke up the dog in the middle of the night laughing!

a laugh a minute romp through the english countryside

A farcical and hilarious examination of what happens when two men sharing decide to spend some time together in the country side! The story never ceases to engross the reader ,and reviews the lighter side of the diffilculties of human sexuality.Corlett the greatest writer of the 90's , (though only attracting a cult following),has achieved greatness yet again!
