Review title: Sicker than it is funny
Product review: "Time After Time" is a grim book. While I found it to be good for a few laughs, I felt guilty about it later. Molly Keane is a little too skillful at satirizing the tropes of the British-country-house novel, and I suspect her of being a misanthrope. All of Keane's characters are flawed people, to greater or lesser degrees, and I hadn't thought I had sympathy for any of them, but at the end, when the author brutally gave each person what he or she supposedly deserved, I felt a little sick.Joylessness isn't what I look for in a novel like this. I think one would do better to find one's humor somewhere else.
