Bliv medlem af LibraryThing for at finde ud af, om du vil kunne lide denne bog. Der er ingen diskussionstråde på Snak om denne bog. Book 4 of the series. In this one Thursday is back in the real world taking care of her son Friday, who's father was erased from time when he was 2. She's trying to get her husband back, while trying to stop a fictional person from taking over England and the Book World. Oh and Hamlet has taking a vacation from his play and is helping her out. Very funny and punny. I love how completely silly and insane Fforde's world is, but how seriously he takes it. Case in point, the fate of the world might hinge on the outcome of the Croquet Superhoop of 1988 (Yes, full contact croquet is a thing, bigger than Football's World Cup) ( ) En el mundo de Thursday Next la literatura es casi una religión. Se ha creado una brigada especial que se ocupa de asuntos como perseguir los plagios o descubrir al verdadero autor de las obras de Shakespeare. Pero tener un padre cronopolicía y un tío capaz delas más locas invenciones no tiene por qué ser una ayuda para una detective literaria. Una vez más, Jasper Fforde consigue que «las barreras entre la realidad y la ficción sean más porosas de lo que creemos», y así se descubre cuando Thursday Next vuelve acompañada de Hamlet, príncipe de Dinamarca, interesado en saber la opinión de la gente sobre él. Mientras, la perversa Goliath Corporation mueve hilos para convertirse en una nueva y poderosa religión mundial. La aventura más loca y surrealista está servida. This entire series is fantastic. After a bit of a slump in book 3, Fforde really stepped it up again in this one and was back at the quality level I expected after books 1 and 2. I'm looking forward to books 5 ([b:First Among Sequels|954208|First Among Sequels (Thursday Next, #5)|Jasper Fforde|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1331411425s/954208.jpg|948585]) & 6 ([b:One of Our Thursdays Is Missing|8131227|One of Our Thursdays Is Missing (Thursday Next, #6)|Jasper Fforde|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1283363358s/8131227.jpg|12927066]) as well as his other books [b:The Big Over Easy|828409|The Big Over Easy (Nursery Crime, #1)|Jasper Fforde|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1178735308s/828409.jpg|2504943], [b:The Fourth Bear|579553|The Fourth Bear|Jasper Fforde|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1175973121s/579553.jpg|948571] and [b:Shades of Grey: The Road to High Saffron|8725325|Shades of Grey The Road to High Saffron|Jasper Fforde|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1297174578s/8725325.jpg|2118671] all sitting on my shelf waiting to be read. 4.66⭐ This is sheer entertainment for a bookish fantasy lover. Read my full review here.
Fforde continues to pitch high, wide, and fast. Sticking with this oddball novel is rewarding, and readers who share Fforde's love of literature and surreal sense of humor will enjoy this free fall through absurdity. With humorous illustrations and curious footnotes sprinkled throughout, Fforde's latest will have hardcore fans roaring. It's easy to be delighted by a writer who loves books so madly -- and who can imagine a Hamlet who roams the real world, declaring: ''That Freud fellow will have a bloody nose if ever I meet him.'' [Fforde] is always charming company, and if he sometimes strays too far into fantasy, well, what's so great about reality?
