“A ghost of a book.Neither very memorable nor very lucid.”
“Um, It's on my actual bookshelf...”
“really enjoyed the book. max seems to have been a bit of a bastard tho. very entitled. and yes, the suicide and lesbian twist really gave the book some much needed weight and perspective”
“I greatly enjoyed "the sea". I like the lesbian twist at the end. I definitely want to check something else out by Banville. And I'm looking for suggestions.”
“couldn't finish this one. weird.”
“lovely prose.. and immaculate in details.. just finished 100th page... finding it very good ”
“Note: John Banville also writes as Benjamin Black. The one work I could find under this pseudonym is a crime novel called "Christine Falls"”
