Title: very enjoyable
Review: It is always a bit scary to try a second novel when the first one was so overwhelmingly wonderful, but Human Croquet is another special novel by Atkinson. It is funny like Behind the Scenes at the Museum, but in quite a different way. The tragedy is more apparent here and accompanies you like a perfume through the book. The way Atkinson plays with time throws you totally off balance and makes you look at your perceptions and interpretations of the story in a very different way.I love it when I can submerse myself in a novel to that extent as if I am diving underwater and all day to day sensations are blotted out. All in all it is a wonderful book which makes you long for her next novel!
