Title: It's Like a Film Festival in Purgatory
Review: My quick advice: if you love Davies and you've read absolutely everything else, nothing I say will stop you.If you love Davies and there's something else you haven't read, go read it before this one.If you haven't read Davies, please, please don't start here because this is awful and just not indicative of what a great writer he is.Davies was clearly touched by a bit of nostalgia, did some digging into his family tree and then decided to build a long boring story around it. The book is deceptive because it starts out as a murder and you expect to witness the ghost inflict revenge in some cunning fashion. No such excitement. Try two hundred years of immigrant movements disguised as one of those excruciating never ending black and white marathon film festivals. If this makes no sense the book probably won't either.
