Book: A whistling woman
Feb. 27th, 2008 12:10 amAuthor: AS Byatt
Details: (c) 2002 AS Byatt; Pub Vintage International 2004; ISBN 0-679-77690-7
Verdict: A whistling woman is terrifying and compelling.
Reasons for reading it: Babel Tower is one of my favourite books ever. For ages, I'd been somewhere in between mad keen to read this to find out what happens to Frederica, and apprehensive because I don't like the first two books in the trilogy and it could so easily be a heartbreaking disappointment.
How it came into my hands: Amazon book spree.
