Until then, nobody, not even he, is safe. Inspired by true, strange stories from Carroll's life, The Oxford Brotherhood is sure to make you curiouser and curiouser.,

Quirky, unashamedly intellectual, sexy, this is a truly ingenious story, brilliantly paced, and finely translated by Alberto Manguel. A worthy successor to the stupendous The Oxford Murders
