In Jasper Fforde's Great Britain, circa 1985, time travel is routine, cloning is a reality (dodos are the resurrected pet of choice), and literature is taken very, very seriously. England is a virtual police state where an aunt can get lost (literally) in a Wordsworth poem and forging Byronic verse is a punishable offense. All this is business as usual for Thursday Next, renowned Special Operative in literary detection. But when someone begins kidnapping characters from works of literature and plucks Jane Eyre from the pages of Brontë's novel, Thursday is faced with the challenge of her career.

silly but lots of fun - I'd probably have enjoyed it even more if I had any kind of familiarity with Jane Eyre.

I've tried and tried to get into Jasper Fforde books but I'm just not on the same wavelength probably. Offering it to someone else on VBB.

Received from BellaMack through the OZ VBB - thanks! I've read a couple of other Jasper Fforde novels and really enjoyed them, so hopefully this one will be on a par.
