William Boyd, The Romantic

 A biographical novel spanning the 19th century and very enjoyable. I kept sneaking off to read a bit more, and given  some of the slogs through books I've had recently it was good to have a book that gave me such pleasure. The main character is ruled by his heart and who makes very rash decisions true to his nature but that lead to adventure, regret and complications. Absolutely lovely though, it's going into Helen's pile. In my quest to catalogue all the books in the house, the living room is nearly finished, just European History to go. I'll try and get that done this weekend and then move on to other rooms - next up, our bedroom. . .
