Being its sequel, Grantchester Grind follows on straight from where Porterhouse Blue finished. It is neither as amusing or as clever as the earlier book, though it is recognisably of the same ilk. For someone who read and enjoyed the earlier book it might be worth reading, however other readers would be better avoiding this and choosing the earlier book instead. Whilst I enjoyed re-reading Porterhouse Blue, I didn't find this sequel, written some 21 years later, much fun. The satire has turned into old man’s state-of-England bitterness, the plot is rather clumsily stuck together, with all sorts of lines that don't go anywhere, and there are relatively few good jokes. If you insist on Cambridge backstabbing and deviant sexual practices, you're much better off reading Simon Raven, who at least manages to be amusing when he’s old and bitter. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Los lectores de Zafarrancho en Cambridge recordarán que Poterhouse era un college que nunca se distinguió por su nivel académico, pero donde la cocina era excelente y no era muy difícil conseguir un título. Ahora, unos años después, todo sigue poco más o No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

While I found Jonathan Cecil's narration excellent, this sequel to Sharpe's "Porterhouse Blue" was less hilarious especially towards the end. ( )
