A singular accomplishment. Boston GlobeIn 1912, rational Fred Fairly, one of Cambridge s best and brightest, crashes his bike and wakes up in bed with a stranger fellow casualty Daisy Saunders, a charming, pretty, generous working-class nurse. So begins a series of complications not only of the heart but also of the head as Fred and Daisy take up each other s education and turn each other s philosophies upside down.
A delight! . Gilbert could have written this and Sullivan set it to music. Daily Mail
