![]() In this utterly original and wonderfully funny first novel, Fforde has created a fiesty, loveable heroine and a plot of such richness and ingenuity that it will take your breath away. In this world there are no jet-liners or computers, but there are policemen who can travel across time, a Welsh republic, a great interest in all things literary – and a woman called Thursday Next. There is another 1985, somewhere in the could-have-been, where the Crimean war still rages, dodos are regenerated in home-cloning kits and everyone is deeply disappointed by the ending of ‘Jane Eyre’.

The Eyre Affair is the first of a series of books by Jasper Fforde about Thursday Nextįirst Line My father had a face that could stop a clock. ![]() Introduce the main character using only three words.ĭelightful design (add the cover image of the book).Īudience appeal (who would enjoy reading this book?) ![]() #FridayBookShare is a game created by Shelley Wilson to help search for an ideal read.Īnyone can have a go – all you need to do is answer the following questions based on the book you are currently reading/finished reading this week and use the hashtag #FridayBookShare ![]()
