This was described as funny. I'm not sure where the humour came in, but I didn't "get it" in his last book either and still enjoyed it so [shrug emoji]

A very clever book, weaving fact into fiction. It was a bit of a (sedate) rollercoaster for me. I started out being fascinated by the two main characters, then began to get irritated by them, and ended up feeling quite sentimental towards them. A lot happens in this book, without very much actually happening.
