Alexander McCall Smith, best-selling author of The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency, has turned his hand to humour. The delightful result is a creation of comic genius. For in the unnaturally tall form of Professor Doctor Moritz-Maria von Igelfeld, we are invited to meet a memorable character whose sublime insouciance is a blend of the cultivated pomposity of Frasier Crane and of Inspecteur Clouseau's hapless gaucherie.

Von Igelfeld inhabits the rarefied world of the Institute of Romance Philology at Regensburg, a world he shares with his equally tall and equally ridiculous colleagues, Professors Florianus Prinzel and Detlev Amadeus Unterholzer. Their unlikely adventures are described in three deliciously funny instalments: Portuguese Irregular Verbs, The Finer Points of Sausage Dogs, and At the Villa of Reduced Circumstances.

The book is a collection of short stories regarding a German philology professor and his fortunes/misfortunes after writing his masterpiece "Portuguese irregular verbs". Some stories and funny and witty, some I felt missed the mark, but the narration by Hugh Laurie is a joy!

Hugh Laurie makes this collection worthwhile

Having enjoyed the authors' 'Lady Detective'I was looking forward to this enormously.Unfortunately I was so bored that I couldn't listen beyond chapter four.There is nothing here to recommend - the story is just not funny, the music between chapters irritating at best - a total waste of Hugh Lauries' talents as a narrator.

disappointing.

An eccentric comic novel which gently parodies the academic life. Hugh Laurie's reading is a joy, he manages 6 or 7 different German character's voices, a number of Italians, and Irish, among others, both male and female, and gives each character their distinctive voice, accent and mannerisms, preserving this during dialogue. He knows exactly the right tone of voice to adopt to bring out the humour in the book. I'm looking forward to listening to him read the other books in this trilogy.
