This Is The Life

James Jones is slipping steadily through life. He has a steady job as a junior partner at a solicitor′s firm, a steady girlfriend and a steady mortgage. Nothing much is happening in Jones′s life but he really doesn′t mind - this is exactly the way he likes it.

Michael Donovan, meanwhile, is a star - a world-class international lawyer and advocate - he′s everything Jones wanted to be and isn′t. Jones was once Donovan′s pupil and, for a while, it looked like he too would make his name - but he left that high powered world behind a long time ago, or so he thought.

One day Jones reads in the paper that Donovan has collapsed in court - then, out of the blue, Donovan contacts him, he has a job he needs Jones to work on ...

Joseph O′Neill′s debut is wonderfully clever and comic novel - about ambitions and aspirations and the realities that they inevitably collide with.
