I have read 2 outstanding novels in the last 12 months. The Goldfinch I found to be an old fashioned novel in the best sense; great depth;humour;
very well written with exceptional descriptive passages and fine characterisation of the main protagonists. Her style and technique just bowled me along so that I read it far into the night sometimes, not being able to put it down. No wonder that one of her models is R.L.Stevenson.The other novel is The Cazalets which we have discussed earlier.
