"Michelle is our real Charles Dickens, and this small novel is working class perfection itself: in a mall, young, gay, punk, and in love for the first time."

Book Favorite

"This novel shows all of Waugh’s gifts for satire and farce, but unlike his earlier novels, it has a three-dimensional, tragic protagonist in aristocratic cuckold Tony Last."

I did not relate to this novel at all. I found it sterile and devoid of any suspense despite the dramatic nature of the story. Cold and depressing.

"Jeff Bezos’s favorite novel, about a butler who wistfully recalls his career in service during wartime Great Britain. Bezos has said he learns more from novels than nonfiction."

Everyone has events that they can use to track life's milestones. In his novel [First Plane Home] [Jon Tait] tells the life of Andy through Scotland's World Cup chances. This well written novel shows what growing up in a country going through some changes is like. The hope of young Andy becomes the cynicism of a teenager and all throughout there is Scotland's football team and their never give up attitude.

When I was first obligated to read this novel, I absolutely hated it. I couldn't understand why it was one of my mother's favorite books. I have nightmares about being questioned numerous times about the symbolism of red in the beginning still. When I had to re-read it for a British novel seminar while studying abroad in a gothic manor, I totally dug it. Jane Eyre is strong, and independent.
