REVIEW OF.  ON BEING FAT.  BY PAMELA J. MULCANEYI have never been REALLY FAT, but I thought I was and so much of this conversation might have been written for me.  Every manoeuvre, exercise, diet, therapist, regime, treatment, product, establishment, spa, that Pamela tried, was at some time in my schedule.  I knew all the trials and tribulations of trying, regressing and trying something else.  She tells it how it is and with her wicked sense of humour, this account is hilarious. If shaking with laughter had been an effective slimming exercise, I would have been sylphlike by the time I finished this book. .  This clever lady almost makes a virtue of being fat, she certainly makes a joke of it  All the indignities disappear when enveloped in mirth.  But then she has to be a bit special to go alone to live in Crete, never having been there before, all 21 stones of her and speaking none of the language.  I'm looking forward to her next offering, there are few such talented comedic writers around
