I don't generally like books saturated in the British class system but I very much enjoyed this book for the language, humour, philosophy, surrealism and generally fun it presented. You do benefit from being somewhat acquainted with the period and 19th English literature to enjoy it but even most readers who have only read Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy could enjoy this book.
