Why read it?
1 author picked The Witches of Chiswick as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
If you’ve gone through life thinking that a sprout can’t be funny, this book will convince you otherwise. Barry the Sprout is the star of the show, lodged in the head of lead character Will Starling. But the whole book is a joy. Highly inventive and very funny. It involves time travel, weird conspiracy theories, Queen Victoria, the Elephant Man, Jack the Ripper, the Brentford Snail Boy, and many more.
From Mark's list on thigh-slappingly funny science fiction.
