Review title: A brilliant novel marred only by a rogue mermaid
Product review: Miller's excellent prose and compelling themes made this the best novel I read in 1998. He writes so well, and so historically believable, that my suspension of disbelief left me only once during the novel. When the young James visits his master's mermaid in stagnant fresh waters beneath the grand country house I felt as if someone had substituted a couple of paragraphs from a Jeanette Winterson novel. I have a great admiration for Jeanette Winterson but this kind of fantasy is seemed completely incongruous with anything else in Miller's novel. never mind, still a fantastic read - but why did he do that?
