A mating call, but no ordinary love story...

Janet, the daughter of the St Magnus fishmonger, is approaching her 18th birthday. If she is still a virgin when she reaches that day, she will inherit the Clubhouse and the 18th green of the local golf club.

Aghast at this prospect, the gentlemen of the August and Venerable Golf Club appoint a seducer, Archie, whose mission is to woo Janet before her birthday, which falls on the last day of the Open Championship.

Pottle, a temporary lecturer in Indian civilisation and the Kama Sutra at the University of St Magnus, needs to write a paper proving that golf originated in India, not Scotland, in order to save his job.

This beguiling and incredibly funny debut novel combines sex, golf, true love and a thoroughly modern take on the traditional notions of class.

New edition with witty illustrations from Bob Dewar, one of the UK's top satirists.
