2.0 out of 5 stars Lampitt series going downhill, February 12, 1998

By 

[e-mail] (New Jersey) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Hearing Voices (Hardcover)

What started out as a magnificentseries of novels beginning withINCLINE OUR HEARTS and A BOTTLEIN THE SMOKE(2 of my favorite books of all time)has become a bore.While Wilson can stillwrite with great panache and wit;his characters have become dreary and turgid.I actually hadto force myself to finish this novel,something I thought I wouldnever have to do with a novel ofA.N.Wilson who still is one of my favorite authors.

2.0 out of 5 stars Tough beginning, March 30, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Hearing Voices: A Novel (Paperback)

This is my first A.N. Wilson book, so maybe I started with the wrong one, but just trying to get going with this one was extremely rugged. However, I managed to stay the course, and the last part kept me. Still a tough read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not great AN Wilson but any AN Wilson is better than most., August 30, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Hearing Voices: A Novel (Paperback)

I have to agree with the New Jersey reviewer but I'd still give it 5 stars. The earlier Lampitts are better. I find it interesting that Anthony Powell also nodded when he tried to bring his "Music of Time" characters into the 60's. The gurus and hippies could not be satirized as easily, or had to be satirized in a different way. Esther Freud's "Hideous Kinky" does a better job on them.
