liv: Bookshelf labelled: Caution. Hungry bookworm (bookies)
Author: Julian Barnes

Details: (c) Julian Barnes 2011; Pub Vintage 2012; ISBN 978-0-099-56497-3

Verdict: The sense of an ending is clever but too depressing for me.

Reasons for reading it: [personal profile] doseybat's mother really pressed it on me, and I generally quite like Julian Barnes anyway.

How it came into my hands: [personal profile] angelofthenorth lent it to me (and in a particularly beautiful edition, too!)

detailed review )

Soundbite

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