Teleophone by Percival Everett

 Good but not great.  Is he too clever and enjoys writing so much that he neglects the story? Originally published in three slightly different versions we managed to source two of them...

RIambel by Priya Hein

 Generally thought to be interesting  ( the setting -  Mauritius and its history) moving  and worthwhile . Some loved it , but some thought it rather worthy and obvious.

David Lodge - Changing Places

 Amusing and a bit show-off with each chapter in a different style . Still relevant satire if a bit dated.

William Boyd- Restless

 A good yarn, some interest but not entirely convincing . Very "filmic".

James Baldwin -Another Country

 A bit over-long and very brutal  in parts , but a great read - We all rated it highly.

Claudia Pineiro A Crack in the Wall

 We enjoyed this . Plot twists that work. Characters one can  see...Recommended

The Unspeakable Skipton Pamela Hansford Johnson

 An anti-hero  centre stage . Hardly any likeable characters  but worth a read  for the period setting and ( self-imposed) desperation of his life
