Jamrach's Menagerie

Colin Marks's review

Nov 03, 2012

really liked it

bookshelves: man-booker

This was another good read from the Man Booker 2011 short list pile (a year behind but at least the bottom is in sight...) The book starts with a 'coming of age' for cat food wannabe Jaff, and ends with a touch of culinary experimentation of his own. Not my favourite of the short listed titles, but one I'd certainly recommend.
