This is a very serious book, which would usually put me off, but I read it in one sitting & I‘m going to be thinking about it for a while. The narrative switches between the experiences of Helen, an Australian at Cambridge in 1992 doing PhD on Joseph Conrad, & episodes from Conrad‘s life & work. I think it is, in part, a meditation on dislocation & associated undercurrents of violence. I think it will be on a few prize lists. #ozfiction

CarolynM @MrsMalaprop I‘ve still not got around to Noah Glass, but after this one I think I‘ll make it a priority. Have you read this one yet? 1mo
MrsMalaprop @CarolynM I‘ve seen this one around, but haven‘t gotten to it yet. I love her work and think she is underrated. Hope you feel similarly about Noah Glass. 1mo
