Haven't yet read this--just a note to remind myselfto get it. Strangely, though I am very fond of Scottish fiction, I haven't read any of Kennedy's books. Is there a better place for me to start than this one?
I have published four novels and four books of literary criticism; I'm currently at work on a book called FOR THE LOVE OF BROKEN THINGS: MY FATHER, EDWARD GIBBON AND THE RUINS OF ROME. I teach in the Department of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University.
Did you get around to reading her? You should read "Original Bliss" and then immediately afterwards, "Everything You Need."
ReplyDeleteYes, I read PARADISE this spring and absolutely LOVED it; and you've now reminded me I must go and get all her others, thanks...
