( ) This was cute. Like other recent books that attempt to humanize the Queen (The Uncommon Reader), the author takes on an aloof story telling air (or maybe that's just a British literary thing?). It was a nice diversion, and an interesting thought experiment about what goes on inside the Queen's head. Fun read. The first half was sometimes unnecessarily confusing as the author jumped forward and backward in time. I don't normally mind a nonlinear story, but Kuhn doesn't give any cues. The reader simply has to figure it out. But the story overall is quite a lot of fun and worth the mild irritation.
Kuhn has pulled off an entertaining ride inside the head of the Queen, enabling us to see her as she really is.
Mrs Queen Takes the Train wittily imagines the kerfuffle that transpires when a bored Queen Elizabeth strolls out of the palace in search of a little fun, leaving behind a desperate team of courtiers who must find the missing Windsor before a national scandal erupts. This lively, wonderfully inventive romp takes readers into the mind of the grand matriarch of Britain's Royal Family, bringing us an endearing runaway Queen Elizabeth on the town.
