Member Since
November 2020


Lee Prescott was born in Liverpool, England, at the height of Beatlemania. Much to his disappointment, being unrelated to any of the Fab Four (DNA test pending), he found himself having to be educated and gain employment status, achieving the former at the Universities of Leeds and Strathclyde and the latter through a quarter of a century working in information technology. While not aimlessly wandering around the world’s mountainous regions, Lee lives in Glasgow, Scotland, with his family.

Life With An Idiot by Victor Erofeyev
"I really liked this, and found it to be one of the most challenging and rewarding books I've read in a while-- Erofeyev's stories here are at once fantastic in the sense that things happen in them that are impossible, formally inventive in the sense " Read more of this review »
Life With An Idiot by Victor Erofeyev
"For most Americans, Soviet Era Russian literature is just a handful of books and authors (Solzhenitsyn, Bulgakov, Pasternak, maybe Akmahtova), most of whom did not make it through the 1950s. Erofeyev as the enfant terrible of the late Soviet era, wri" Read more of this review »
Life With An Idiot by Victor Erofeyev
"I grew to hate this book. A slow read and given my lack of knowledge of the inside jokes of Russia etc among the short stories I just had to give up on it halfway."

The Anarchy by William Dalrymple

Encyclopedic and with a story that doesnt really need much to keep the reader going from the author as its compelling enough on its own. Doesnt quite make the 5 stars though as I felt the anti-british bias was a little unbalanced.

Caledonian Road by Andrew O'Hagan

Clear rating
Initially I thought this was just a pretentious, overly-clever piece of London based 1st world problems, but by the end thought this one was great. Stay with it, after about the 1st 200 pages it properly gets going.
