The Family Law

By: Benjamin Law

Narrated by: Benjamin Law

Meet the Law family - eccentric, endearing and hard to resist. Your guide: Benjamin, the third of five children and a born humorist. Join him as he tries to answer some puzzling questions: Why won't his Chinese dad wear made-in-China underpants? Why was most of his extended family deported in the 1980s? Will his childhood dreams of Home and Away stardom come to nothing? What are his chances of finding love? Hilarious and moving, The Family Law is a linked series of tales from a wonderful Australian talent.

Critic reviews

"Law is a writer of great wit and warmth who combines apparently artless and effortless comedian's patter with a high level of technical skill." ( Sydney Morning Herald)
"An addictive read." ( The Courier Mail)

Charming, if a little too focused on private parts

“The resulting farts were indescribably rancid”
This was a series of random stories about Benjamin Law’s life and family. Especially in the beginning, the stories are all about bodily humor, with a special focus on jokes about men’s and women’s naughty bits. There were some funny parts. There were some sad parts. But mostly this was a merry go round, rather than a rollercoaster, listen.

I found much more humor in Law School, a two hour novella where Benjamin and his mother share the mic, reading and answering letters asking sex questions. I would just die doing that with my mom. However, his mom steals the show. At one point, Law School was a freebie in Audible Plus, so you might want to start there if you’re on the fence.
