Typical Magnus Mills' fayre, very similar to his earlier novel The Scheme for Full Employment. This time it is about the absurd routine and regulations that control a public transport system, narrated by a nameless bus driver. Not much happens but I like Mills' deadpan style and it was a short, quick read that amused me. ( )
