For fans of The Rosie Project, The Flatshare and Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine, The Theory of (Not Quite) Everything is an utterly delightful reminder that the bonds of family and calculations of the heart are determined to follow a logic all of their own . . .
A woman finds herself filling a pit in the forest in the middle of the night; a family lock each other in their bedrooms to battle a strange plague; a wizard punishes two beautiful ballerinas by turning them into one hugely fat circus performer; a colonel is warned not to lift the veil from his dead wife's face.
