Call me a crotchety curmudgeon, but I started on this book with two mental blocks. |
He is a bit of a curmudgeon who changes his mind all the time, but he is still likable. |
In truth, he often proved an irascible, frustrating curmudgeon at the tribunal but people loved him for it. |
At times Bifo seems a cranky old curmudgeon madly shaking his fist at the present. |
One can see that his colleagues must have regarded him as a cross-grained old curmudgeon. |
I haven't finished the book yet but my overall impression is of a changeable curmudgeon but not a monster. |
