Review of Salmon Fishing in the Yemen (2012) by Paul A — 10 Nov 2012
For those who have read the book (and enjoyed it) I would not recommend seeing the film. The satire is stripped out, the characters have become stereotypes, and the romance takes a predictable & cliched Hollywood-esque turn at the end that the book happily avoids.
All a bit sickly sweet for me.
