Had to slog through
this at first, but it had me captured by the final 200 pages and I neglected
other activities to finish it! I am a bit dim though, so needed to check with
wikipedia afterwards to make sure I'd understood what had happened. Just as well
as I didn’t realise it was built around a novel in a novel in a novel rather
than just a novel in a novel. Maybe some light reading is needed to follow
Had a lovely haul of
books for Christmas; Barry Cunliffe's new book, Nairn's London, a biography of
William Marshal as well as my standard post-christmas hoovering up of the books
I wanted but didn't get. The Nuffield study of the 2015 election is out now,
which I'll devour (all the time feeling the pangs of agony at the result), but
have just started on The Silk Roads, a present from Helen's Mum and Dad
