Revue de presse :
This man Stefan Themerson should be better known than I suspect he is. The Mystery of the Sardine . . . is a fascinating piece of work, written with the elegance of haute couture. --Times
Themerson's neo-surrealist style enables him felicitously to interweave incongruities, ludic exercises, shrewd observations, jokes, lightly worn learning, cris de couer and parables. --Times Literary Supplement
What an extraordinary writer Stefan Themerson is. While other novelists seem hell-bent on creating great, enormous doorstops of books with very little in them, Mr. Themerson produces The Mystery of the Sardine, a slim and modest volume which is absolutely jam-packed with ideas. --Punch

What an extraordinary writer Stefan Themerson is. While other novelists seem hell-bent on creating great, enormous doorstops of books with very little in them, Mr. Themerson produces The Mystery of the Sardine, a slim and modest volume which is absolutely jam-packed with ideas. --Punch
When an unknown black poodle inexplicably explodes in philosophy professor Timothy Chesterton-Brown's back yard--paralyzing the professor and killing his guest--the mystery of the sardine begins. Its solution will involve such unwitting detectives as a twelve-year-old mathematician, his mother, his beloved, a palmist named Miss Prentice, and a bureaucrat dubbed the Minister of Imponderabilia. The clues they unearth--drawing on logic, the occult, intuition, and everything in between--lead them far away from the tiny seaside town where they begin. We follow them to Majorca, Rome, Warsaw, and London, but in the end, the solution lies beyond even the furthest and most magical reaches of reason.
