I got through over half of one of the funniest novels I've ever read, a Chinese effort called "Fortres Beseiged". It's a Chinese novel, titled after a French proverb: "Marriage is like a fortress beseiged: those who are outside want to get in, and those who are inside long to break out." It follows the thoughts of both men and women, capturing the petty, silly, foolish and misguided thoughts of the characters.
The Bookworm got a copy, and I'm almost to the part where I was when I left it in a cab almost two years ago. Absolute riot!
