Description: Book In English. Whatever It Is, I Don't Like It. Howard Jacobson It takes a particular kind of man to want an embroidered polo player astride his left nipple.

But the hour passes. Good men return from fighting Satan in the wilderness the stronger for their struggle, and so do I. The winner of the 2010 Man Booker Prize, Howard Jacobson, brims with life in this collection of his most acclaimed journalism.
