Nabla

On and off, I've tended to read quite a bit. So, I thought I'd put up some reviews of books as I read them. In time, I may go back and add reviews of some of the books I read in the past. Not massively exciting, but I suppose it may be of interest to someone, somewhere (perhaps).

Vernon God Little - DBC Pierre

It won the Booker prize, and, yes, it's good. Somewhere betwen The Catcher in the Rye and A Confederacy of Dunces, Vernon Little is falsely accused of mass murder. A satire on America may seem too easy, but it's done very well. The plot takes a reasonable number of turns, and you have to keep reevaluating things. All in all, I think it works really well.
