## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Fun, short, perceptive
  

*by G***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2013*

I don't normally give fives, especially for fiction, but this book captures the fastidiousness of Germans and German scholars quite well.  But, most importantly, it captures the rarefied and sheltered world of academics, many of whom are all too haughty, self-righteous, and self-important, pretentious blowhards, ranging from lovably pompous to offputtingly pompous.  Not only that, these are funny and entertaining little novellas.  And thus, they do exactly what they're supposed to do.  Classic literature?  No.  But fun?  Yes.  When you discover the worst thing that could happen is putting "Portuguese Irregular Verbs" into storage... priceless.  When you find out the poor dachshund is... Unterholzer's... priceless.  The third "episode" stumbles a bit, it's not quite as good as the first two, but it still captures things well, and has its moments.  The indictment of departmental politics with the vignette at Cambridge is biting whilst remaining lighthearted.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A very entertaining read !
  

*by M***S on Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2016*

Hilarious trilogy in the Professor von Iglefield series: it includes "Portugese Irregular Verbs", "The Finer Points of Sausage Dogs", and "In the Villa of Reduced Circumstances". The book's title is a perfect description of the three professors, who, together, are a couple sandwiches shy of a picnic!!Hence, the reduced number of pillars from T. H. Lawrence's famous novel!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Gut wrenching laughs
  

*by C***. on Reviewed in the United States on August 27, 2016*

The second book in this series is so funny that I could not read it for laughing. I had to stop and start the book 3 times before I was able to get through it without bending over laughing so hard I literally could not breathe. Alexander McCall Smith never hurts and always entertains.
