Review
"...[Offers] entertaining insights into one of the most celebrated of all comic strips." -- The Independent (UK)
"A high-spirited double riff on the comic books and the theory alike." -- Evening Standard (UK)
"He picks up such potentially dry notions with...flair and humour, weaving them through the books with...highly un-academic glee." -- Sunday Herald (Glasgow)
"[Tin Tin and the Secret of Literature demonstrates] that Herge's oeuvre is as...symbolically resonant as Proust or Shakespeare...fascinating." -- The Observer (UK)
"[His] chatty style is so forcefully confident and his argument so tightly constructed and so well-supported...It's brilliant." -- Daily Telegraph (UK)
