In between revisits to The Hobbit and all my Austen, I've just read Mister Pip by Lloyd Jones. It's quite good, an easy read (I finished it in a matter of hours) and an interesting snapshot of life a very long way away fro the UK. Not great literature and the Dickens gets a wee bit forced.
About to start *Herzog *(Saul Bellow). Has anyone read it?
