Like most people, Vic Mullan, habitual drug-user, professional layabout, and amoralist extraordinaire, can remember where he was and what he was doing on the day of Princess Diana's death. Yes, he can remember it particularly well: he was at home, beginning an affair with Emma, his best friend's wife.The opening sections of David Baddiel's second novel chart the history of an intense and passionately sexual liaison set against the background of the most hysterical - in both senses of the word - time in recent memory. But as the months wear on, and life and love return to normal, so things become more complex between Vic and Emma. And then, tragedy - a real, local, small-scale tragedy, as opposed to a national, iconic, mythological one - intervenes. Part-satire, part-love story, part-whodunnit, and part-meditation on the nature of sex and death, Whatever Love Means is truly a tale for our times

I read it in one sitting with awe... a thriller and a love story constructed with a sinister symmetry where everything comic is shadowed by something dark (Chrissie Iley, SUNDAY TIMES)
Touching and strange and funny (Sam Mendes, Director of AMERICAN BEAUTY)
A black, sometimes tender read ...An impressive and intelligent book from a novelist who deserves to be taken seriously (THE TIMES)
Baddiel's novel is hilariously un-PC and surprisingly tender...the ending will haunt you for days (WOMAN'S JOURNAL)
* Second novel from TV writer/comedian and novelist - and again, a bitter-sweet romantic tragicomedy.
