A postmodern fairy tale might best describe this,delightful new book. How else to describe a novel,that reads like an Arthurian Romance as rewritten,by Lewis Carroll, with enough maths puzzles to,keep the game reader busy with a calculator for,months? There are dramatic abductions, daring,rescues, allegorical interludes, and passages in,hitherto untranscribed languages. There are even,questions at the end to test the reader, for THE,PRINCESS HOPPY is ultimately a giddy inquiry into,how we read literary works.
