Not Forgetting the Whale by John Ironmonger

3.0

As @Henk says, very close to a fictional form of Humankind. Entertaining, whimsical, easy to read and very topical in 2021. It draws closely from the tale of Jonah and the whale, and has the feel of a fable about it. To begin with, I felt it had echoes of some of the characters in Undermilk Wood, though this lessened as I went through the book.
