註釋

Chalk and cheese; sweet and sour; oil and water - the Doubleday twins, Donald and Daniel, couldn't be less identical.PUSHmePULLyou follows them from birth in glum post-war council estate Britain, through the hedonistic fun bubble of the late twentieth century, right up to the present day, where life is finally more comfortable, at least for one of them. Mike Wade's novel sets out to amusingly explore one of the great dilemmas of growing up: once the hurly-burly of early adulthood is over, must ageing mean nothing more than a loss of appetites, drives and energy? Or might there be compensating benefits to this maturity - positives unimagined until 'middle age' comes knocking on the mirror. And if so, what are the best strategies for success? Should one play the tortoise or the hare, sit back and think of England, or channel one's inner party animal, hanging on to fading youth for dear life?PUSHmePULLyou examines the options in the course of this happy, sad, serious, frivolous, optimistic, worrying, exciting, scary tale. Exactly like life itself.
