brilliant but i think its best yo read it just for language and phrasing first - focussing on those and plot made it tricky (but beautiful) to follow #stlucia i totally see why he was awarded a Nobel!
I shouldn't drink and read book reviews at the same time...I think I ordered a massive biography of Frans Liszt and a Caribbean refashioning of Homeric poetry last night. Two things I didn't know I wanted to read. 🤔
