Corduroy Mansions is hilarious. A new departure written with familiar flair, Alexander McCall Smith's latest novel is set in London and uses a wonderful building as a unifying theme. Corduroy Mansions may have been an asylum or a school but it is certainly home to a vivid cast; a wine merchant, an accountant and possibly the first ever nasty Liberal Democrat MP. Warmth, comedy and a marvellously fluent facility with an intricate narrative mark this new work as a McCall Smith classic. Heroically prolific, endlessly inventive and absolutely unique, he simply has no peer. In the genre of gentle comedy, social observation and pungent characterisation, no other author does it better.
