Understated British Humour,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Maintenance of Headway (Paperback)
Who wouldn't love a book that lets us travel with a London bus driver - and a double-decker at that? This is a thin version of Catch-22. Mills lets us have more fun than the driver or the passengers.
Our protagonist is a veteran of the driver corps. He and his driver friends run up against the bureaucracy on a daily basis. Of course, the London bus bureaucracy (like bureaucracies everywhere) loves requiring that things be done in a certain way for the excellent reason that they have always been done that way. While not laugh-out-loud funny, Maintenance of Way will keep a smile on your face for the duration of this all-to-short book. If you like British humour, you will get a kick out of this one. I have ordered two more books by Mills because of this one. |
