Dead Sexy by Kathy Lette

God, apparently as a prank, devised two sexes and called them 'opposite'. For 5000 years, the sex war has raged, with still no truce in sight. While birds and insects all pair off happily, breeding away without the aid of Internet dating sites and GSOH's - the male and female of the human species are constantly at war. We're supposed to be the higher animal life form, but you don't see squid going on radio dating quiz programmes to get laid, now do you? A local London radio station runs a 'Desperate and Dateless' competition. A computer has matched - physically and emotionally, psychologically and intellectually - what they predict to be the perfect pair. Kit: diamond-studded ears, American, with friends in low places, believes women are little more than a life support system to an ovary. And then Shelly: pin-stripe-underpanted, cultured, classical guitarist, thinks optimism is an eye disease, hates all men. They meet the day they are to be married...

Following the success of Altar Ego, Foetal Attraction and Mad Cows, ex-newspaper columnist, sitcom writer and rock singer Kathy Lette gives us another humorous chick-lit publication, Dead SexyThis time the romance revolves around a couple called Kit and Shelley, who are matched up through a dating competition run by a local radio station. Although the computer has found them compatible in every way imaginable, the couple couldn't be less alike; Kit considers women to be little more than baby machines and Shelley is a man-hater. A comic-tragic situation arises when the couple meet for the first time. on their wedding day. This is a light-hearted satire on the dating game.
