A Novel Approach

“I aim to make the fiction flexible so that it bends itself around the facts as we have them. Otherwise I don’t see the point.”

Hilary Mantel

The Soloist

Rue Notre Dame des Champs

The Ossaca Affair

The books I’ve read since 2016, listed in the order I read them.

Should you browse these shelves looking for your next read, you’re sure to notice that I lurch from topic to topic like a drunken sailor. I’m not a critic, so you won’t find reviews here. Occasionally, you’ll see “Memorable” under a title, by which I mean the work moved me mightily, made me laugh, or, in a few cases, succeeded in doing both.
