I don’t read much contemporary fiction as I prefer 20th century writers, but something drew me to this novel. On balance, I’m glad I read it, but think I’ll go back in time again for my next book. My heart sank as I started the book - present tense, r ...more |

I have a few of the School of Life’s books, and, as I’ve come to expect, this one is beautifully produced and a pleasure to read. Not just from the content, but from the haptic qualities too. It’s full of wise words, confirming what you already know i ...more |

A completely original novel. Weird, in a good way (I think), but not terribly easy to follow or read. It’s the story of a woman artist called Ellen, who is prone to euphoric, manic episodes. Ellen refers to these as “radiances” and when overcome by o ...more |

| This was one of those books that I had high hopes for. It started well, but I soon got rather bogged down and irritated by the way it's written. I probably should have paid more attention to the sub-title. I worked in brands and advertising and both ...more | |

| “The Rack” is a long and involving novel, covering much of the same territory as “The Magic Mountain.” Both are set in an Alpine TB sanitorium and follow the story of a hapless young man whose stay lengthens from weeks to months to years. But “The Ra ...more | |

This is a long and ambitious book (although the last 25% on my Kindle is acknowledgements, an extensive list of sources and an index). It’s not particularly easy to read on Kindle because of the many quotes and references. “Infantilised” is an accoun ...more |

| “Gabriel’s Moon” is the tale of an insomniac travel writer who inadvertently becomes a spy. The book is set in the early 1960s and has a great sense of time and place - from London to Spain to the Congo. I always enjoy the way that Boyd skillfully we ...more | |

| Kitty Fane is a rather frivolous, outgoing would-be socialite who marries in haste, for all the wrong reasons. Her husband, Walter, is a shy boffin-type who works as a bacteriologist out in Hong Kong. The pair are ill-matched and Kitty doesn’t give t ...more | |

N.B: 5 stars for the novel, 1 star for the Kindle formatting “Bright Day” is an exceptional novel, a sort of archaeology or even geology of the soul, as earlier layers of ourselves surface once more in response to sights, sound and smells from the pas ...more |

I read “Marking Time”, Book 2 in the series 4 months ago and it felt like it was time for another dose of Cazalets. “Confusion” covers the war period from 1942 up to VE Day May 1945. The girl cousins are in their late teens at the outset and this boo ...more |
