  <default_description>&quot;A Maggot&quot; is not a historical novel in the normal sense. It began as a quirk or obsession (a 'maggot' in the archaic sense of the word) which found its setting in the second wave of Protestant Dissent in England. It took shape as a mystery - a compelling investigation of unaccountable motives and deeds - which led through beguiling paths to a starling vision at its centre.</default_description>

I don't pretend to understand what Fowles attempted here -- all I could decipher was a group of trekking pilgrims in 17th (?) century (it actually felt like an earlier time than that ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/71767752">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I absolutely hated this book. Only finished it through sheer stubborness and determination. The book has an interesting premise......and almost pulls it off until the very end when it all disintegrates into a debate over Puritan and religious theology. <br/>Bored me to tears. <br/><br/>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[very strange development of the narrative and the final analysis of the story is 'i'm not sure what he was on when he wrote this book but it must have been something very strong'. All in all I enjoyed the book, but still get a frown on my forehead when I think about it!]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Fantastic book which is part historical fiction and part sci-fi. Fowles' dense prose and knack for tongue-of-the-time is aided by his use of actual magazine excerpts. Curious tale, particularly given that most of the people in it actually existed...]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Weird, Weird, Weird book.  Starts out with a group of mismatched travelers, archetypes, who are traveling to a point that's unrevealed until they arrive.  I can't really say anymore without giving anything away.  ]]></body>
