He dies! Is Aschenbach a pervert or just a bit queer?! The jury is out!...but is Gustave?

Andrew is on page 100 of 224 of The Card

An entertaining moral fable.with a satirical tone which will delight new readers unfamiliar with Bennett's well-crafted stories of common-or-garden people in Edwardian England.

Andrew is on page 40 of 372 of Death in Venice

Half-way through the brief encounter with Gustave von Aschenbach's final days, fatally transfixed by Tadzio...a boy of golden perfection but fatally flawed himself.Poignant but disturbing...for a once-gilded youth like me!

Andrew is on page 302 of 390 of Christine Falls (Quirke, #1)

"It occurred to him that he was sick of being Quirke, but knew that there was no one else he could be.". P.302. Isn't that the human condition in a nut-shell?

Tolstoy takes his time to tell a tale.I don't think he wrote for the 21st century reader but his prose - even in translation - is timeless.

Asonishingly good with some moments of literary sorcery not involving vampires,zombies or werewolves!

The quality of the writing transcends the subject matter...dead bodies, & dead & dying souls in 1950s Dublin...dissected by pathologist Quirke, a creation of some depth with quirks aplenty! Great stuff!

I love books like this...full of the byways of historical 'facts'...startling revelatons...disinterments of long-neglected corpses of knowledge...

Andrew is on page 120 of 187 of Buried Alive

Bennett is a revelation! Not a scene misfires, not a dialogue that doesn't add depth to the well-fleshed characters.
