It is very surprising to me how many of my Project 24 books so far have been IN PRINT. It’s quite unusual for me at the best of times, but particularly when I’m narrowing my gaze to limited buying. Truth be told, Perfection by Vincenzo Latronico wasn’t on my radar at all – but I need to read it for the next episode of ‘Tea or Books?’
I’ve read lots of Fitzcarraldo’s non-fiction, but this will be my first delve into their fiction. And look how zeitgeisty, it’s just been nominated for the International Booker, or something like that.
Not where I thought Project 24 would take me – but pleased that I’m still very much on track with my rations.
Ha, recently read and reviewed by me as part of the International Booker longlist, although I’d probably have got around to it anyway for its Berlin connection. Curious to hear what you what you think of it. I was somewhat torn.
And read by me too, because I read Marina’s review!
I am considering this one too. If I can find it in a bookshop I will see if I can have a sneaky peak before I commit!
Interesting – this one is turning up all over the place and it does sound intriguing!
