Reason for Reading: Recommended by a friend
REVIEW: Wow! Hard to believe this is by the same guy who wrote Flaubert’s Parrot, which I read last month. Arthur & George is an intricately crafted, beautifully spun, most engrossing story of …. well, yeah, you guessed…two guys named Arthur & George. George gets himself into a wee spot of trouble, arrested for a crime he didn’t commit (or did he?), and Arthur steps in to help. A fascinating page-turner that cleverly and convincingly weaves the theme of hidden truths through several converging storylines at once. Highly recommended.
