Animal Lovers, by Rob Palk

30-ish bloke’s wife leaves him at start of book. Feels sorry for himself in a Tony parsons/Tim Lott kind of way, admitting how useless he is and planning to win her back.

I got this book after reading column in paper by author (or maybe it was a btl comment) where he was talking about difficulties of navigating benefits system after he’d become disabled. The book's narrator is also disabled (part blind, which I think is the same disability as author) so one assumes there’s a fair amount of autobiography in here.

Nothing special.
