Two things about this book appealed to me before I opened a page.

The title, which indicated the promise of the atmosphere of the busy university town which I have stayed in many times. Secondly the possibility of the intellectual challenge of Godel's Incompleteness Theorem (I enjoyed maths at school and university).

I checked out Google and Wikipedia to satisfy myself that there was indeed such a theorem. There is.

Then I read the book. It was a disappointment. Little plot, little character development and not much about Oxford.
