Editorial Reviews

Review

'The writing is nearly always superb, not only in the great passages of poetical description but also in the asides, the casual wit and the brilliance of comment.' Philip Toynbee, Observer

5.0 out of 5 stars Clever, surprising, a delight, pure Durrell, September 3, 1998

This review is from: The Dark Labyrinth (Mass Market Paperback)

Durrell (The Alexandria Quartet) originally published this "adventure" under another name, but it's pure Durrell; multiple character's find their appropriate discovery in the labyrinth under Crete, and an O.Henry style conclusion offers new possibilities. Deeper than you think.
