MAKING NICE - FERDINAND MOUNT TASCHENBUCH

The deliciously sharp new novel from Ferdinand Mount  author of the Sunday Times Book of the
Year Kiss Myself Goodbye Ferdinand Mount's stinging satire plunges into the dubious world of
London PR firms  the back rooms of Westminster and the campaign trail in Africa and America. We
follow the hapless Dickie Pentecost  redundant diplomatic correspondent for a foundering
national newspaper  together with his stern oncologist wife Jane  and their daughters Flo  an
aspiring ballerina  and the quizzical teenager Lucy. The whole family find themselves entangled
in an ever more alarming series of events revolving around the elusive Ethel (full name
Ethelbert)  dynamic founder of the soaring public relations agency Making Nice. With echoes of
Evelyn Waugh and The Thick of It  Making Nice is a masterly take on the madness of contemporary
society and the limitless human capacity for self-deception.
