Why don't women tell jokes? Because we marry them.
Devastatingly funny and more than a little outrageous, Kathy offers up advice ("if he wants breakfast in bed, tell him to sleep in the kitchen"), her inimitable insights into the battle of the sexes ("statistically, 100% of divorces begin with marriage") and some scathing observations of the decidedly less fair sex ("all husbands think they're Gods. If only their wives weren't atheists").
Praise for Kathy Lette:
'Fabulous, fast-paced, funny & unapologetically female. Nobody does it better.' DEBORAH FRANCES-WHITE, THE GUILTY FEMINIST
'Deliciously rude and darkly funny, but with compassion and humanity at its heart. Read with relish.' NICOLE KIDMAN
'Kathy Lette can turn from raunchy farce to the most tender emotion in a trice.' STEPHEN FRY
