Review title: A pompous ass makes a splash
Product review: Portugese Irregular Verbs, as you may have guessed from the title, is about a very superficially self-satisfied college professor, with a VERY limited field of study. He and his colleges bore each other to tears at their exclusive conferences. Our protagonist is delightfully stuffy and he finds himself in a number of amusing corners. This is a smile to yourself book, not a laugh out loud book. If you have ever known a college professor, you must read it. Don't, however, read it if you love Precious from the #1 Ladies Detective Agency and you are looking for a similar character. You will be greatly disappointed. This book actually pleased me because it demonstrated the great flexablilty of Alexander McCall Smith and his ability to write more than one character with skill. It's very short- it will only take and hour or so.
