Lovejoy in Wales,
By
This review is from: The Sin Within Her Smile (Hardcover)
Lovejoy novels are sometimes difficult to read because of the British slang and obscure language that Gash employs. This book is particularly obscure and requires some concentration. There is also a huge cast in the book, and it's difficult to keep everyone straight. But, having said that, it's still worth the effort, but I wouldn't recommend this book for first time Lovejoy readers. In it we have Lovejoy sold at a charity auction as "Slave for a day". He is sold for a huge sum, and he's not sure what's expected of him at all. He actually ends up in a horse-drawn caravan with a bunch of mentally challenged people as they make the trek to Wales to move into a new hospital. The antics of this group as well as the other "trevies" (travelling people in buses and trailers) are quite hilarious. We get a glimpse of Wales as no one else can depict it, as well as a good history lesson from Lovejoy as he explains the origins of the many antiques that he encounters. As I said, still worth the effort.
