There are so many small gestures and so many distinct and vivid observations in each scene. The things that O'Sullivan chooses to write about, and those he chooses to leave out, feel like unique and thoughtful choices, and nothing like the other 2018 novels I've read. A word that comes to mind to describe this novel is "genteel." An old-fashioned word for a quality that's difficult to find in contemporary fiction. The novel is filled with wonderful humane characters whom I cared about and who were remarkable individuals, people I would recognize if I ever met them.
My deep thanks to Marcus Hobson for sending me a copy of this wonderful novel!… (mehr)
