Sound Theory Book Club: Engleby



I read Sebastian Faulks' Birdsong a while ago and thought it was brilliant, a few years later I read Charlotte Gray and thought it was alright, and then I read On Green Dolphin Street and thought it was rubbish.  So when I was lent Engleby, I wasn't really sure what to expect.  Well, it was a right good read, finished just inside a week (currently in my fourth year of trying to finish off To Kill a Mockingbird in Spanish) - the eponymous narrator reminded me of Holden Caulfield or The Outsider.  Highly recommended. 4/5
