liv: Bookshelf labelled: Caution. Hungry bookworm (bookies)
Author: Iris Murdoch

Details: (c) Iris Murdoch 1954; Pub Penguin 1974; ISBN 0-1400-1445-4

Verdict: Under the net is rather odd.

Reasons for reading it: I am generally a fan of Iris Murdoch, (although I absolutely hated The black prince). And after Terminal Café I had to read something I could expect to be well written.

How it came into my hands: Some charity shop in the UK somewhere. I've had the book for a while, partly because I have to be in the right mood for Murdoch, and partly because The black prince seriously put me off.

Soundbite

Miscellaneous. Eclectic. Random. Perhaps markedly literate, or at least suffering from the compulsion to read any text that presents itself, including cereal boxes.
