I‘m just starting this 1957 British Library Crime Classic and I‘ve heard it‘s best to go in without reading too many blurbs, etc (I‘ve skipped the intro for now!). I‘m only two chapters in and the narrator is already maliciously creepy. I‘m hooked!
@vivastory This is the one I mentioned in your last comment. 😊
pickAnother solid addition to the British Library Crime Classics lineup. The narrative device of having the accused give a statement in his own words is interesting and feels rather modern for a BLCC book. Worth picking up.
pickIt‘s quite hard to talk about this book because it would be easy to say too much, but I don‘t think it‘s giving away a lot to say that John is a massively unlikeable man. He‘s unhappy in almost every part of his life, but you don‘t really feel much sympathy for his because he‘s so awful even in his own words. I absolutely raced through this, it‘s not long but it‘s also a massive page-turner.
