I was surprised to discover online that Jeffrey Archer--so favorably juxtaposed to Salman Rushdie in one of Bridget Jones’ Diary’s hilarious dinner scenes-- seems to be pretty unpopular in the British press‚ quite aside from the fact that he’s been convicted of a felony. (His scandalous lifestyle is straightforwardly presented here.) Whatever the man’s personal flaws‚ however‚ his first book‚ Not a Penny More‚ Not a Penny Less‚ is a lot of fun.

The first indication towards it was Henry James’ essay "The Art of Fiction" (1884)‚ which referred to the novelist’s calling as a "Sacred office".
