Book: The queen of the tambourine
Jul. 12th, 2007 10:35 pmAuthor: Jane Gardam
Details: (c) 1991 Jane Gardam; Pub 1993 Abacus; ISBN 0-349-10226-0
Verdict: The queen of the tambourine is beautifully characterized and a little disturbing.
Reasons for reading it: I love love love Jane Gardam. And I was so excited to find there was a novel of hers that is more recent than the stuff I'd previously read (she's not tremendously prolific).
How it came into my hands: The big Oxfam in Cambridge.
