About this listen

 THERE'S NO PLANET LIKE HOME

After an 'incident' one wet Friday night where he was found walking naked through the streets of Cambridge, Professor Andrew Martin is not feeling quite himself. Food sickens him. Clothes confound him. Even his loving wife and teenage son are repulsive to him. He feels lost amongst an alien species and hates everyone on the planet. Everyone, that is, except Newton, (and he's a dog).

Who is he really? And what could make someone change their mind about the human race?©2020 Matt Haig (P)2020 Canongate Books Ltd Science Fiction Fiction Funny Witty Thought-Provoking

I really enjoyed this book. It was an easy read, but also had enough substance to really make you think about what it is to be human. It had plenty of laugh out loud moments. I recommend it.
