In his introduction to the March 2009 "Cambridge Companion to Voltaire," editor Nicholas Cronk includes "A Visit From Voltaire" as one of five noteworthy modern fiction works inspired by the "protean" Voltaire since 2000; "In the tradition of the best self-help novels, Voltaire teaches her how to live a happy and full life." What an unexpected honour for my comic fiction to be included in a definitive academic reference about Voltaire and his influence down the centuries. Thank you, Prof. Cronk!
