| Description: |
In 2004 STARTER FOR TEN was the most exciting novel to hit the shelves since HIGH FIDELITY and BRIDGET JONES'S DIARY. The film - starring James McAvoy, Alice Eve and Rebecca Hall - is destined to be an equally huge success. |
| Synopsis: |
It's 1985 and Brian Jackson has arrived at university with a burning ambition - to make it onto TV's foremost general knowledge quiz. But no sooner has he embarked on 'The Challenge' than he finds himself falling hopelessly in love with his teammate, the beautiful and charismatic would-be actress, Alice Harbinson. When Alice fails to fall for his slightly over-eager charms, Brian comes up with a foolproof plan to capture her heart once and for all. He's going to win the game, at any cost, because - after all - everyone knows that what a woman really wants from a man is a comprehensive grasp of general knowledge ...STARTER FOR TEN is a comedy about love, class, growing-up and the all-important difference between knowledge and wisdom. Are you up to the challenge of the funniest novel in years? |
