Zuleika Dobson, or, an Oxford love story by Max BeerbohmMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I read that this was an Edwardian novel, and I admit that didn't mean much to be at the time. Now, however, I'm wondering if it means a novel that starts off as a full-fledged Victorian novel, taking itself and its characters much too seriously, and then suddenly does a 180-degree turnaround and spits out something else entirely.
This was rather slow to get into, but I'm glad I stuck with it. Knowing nothing about the novel I was pleasantly surprised at the outcome.
