I recommend this book to anyone who appreciates imagination, wisdom, tenderness and wit. The story is so rich and captivating that it made me reduce my sleep time drastically, but it was all worth it, and I managed to function all right until there came the time to say good-bye. I still miss my favourite character, Vic. Hope you enjoy this reading as much as I did. Thank you, David Lodge, for writing this great story.
