Willis: a comedy of manners and pet preferences

Date of Review:  Jul 30, 2000
Review: The frighteningly rich and appallingly mannered Lady Schrapnell has invaded Oxford University's time travel research project, promising to endow it if they help her rebuild Coventry Cathedral, which was destroyed during an air raid in World War II...

Pros
A fun romp through Victorian England
Cons
Not everybody's idea of science fiction
 

Is anything trivial? A comedy on the connectedness of things

Date of Review:  Oct 15, 2001
The Bottom Line: Read this book if you want to laugh, be entertained, educated and have an adventure all at the same time.
Review: Hugo award winner, To say nothing of the dog is an eclectic wonder part Historical romance, part mystery. Winding around ideas which are pure science fiction, Connie Willis spins an hilarious yarn. No-one could pigeon-hole this book as anything...

Love in the Space-Time Continuum: To Say Nothing of the Dog

Date of Review:  Aug 4, 2001
The Bottom Line: Worth reading!

Professional Reviews

  Washington Post Book World: "Though Willis salts her book with up-to-date details about chaos theory, she is a quite traditional writer, since her novel is a domestic comedy that concludes with a marriage. She ably handles her large cast of obsessed professors, stolid but decent butlers, demented aristocrats, flighty maids and fearsome aunts. TO SAY NOTHING OF THE DOG is a sweet and honorable book that provides a great deal of pleasure."

First Line

  There were five of us--Carruthers and the new recruit and myself, and Mr. Spivens and the verger. It was late afternoon on November the fifteenth, and we were in what was left of Coventry Cathedral, looking for the bishop's bird stump.
