Another one for the 1001 books challenge. tragically accumulating them faster than i can read them but giving it a good go!

This is an excellent book. Dense, rich and full of all the curved balls that life can throw at a group of people. Examines the idea of a long kept secret and the choices and perceptions that people make because of race. Is what we see on the outside really ever representative of the person on the inside? I will definately read more Philip Roth books after reading this one. Highly recommended!

Read as part of the 1001 books challenge, this book will be released as part of my 6 month anniversary RABCK in a few weeks.

Waiting to be released to mrbaggins1 in south africa as part of my 6 month snniversary RABCK. will post v.soon.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

Sending this to Mrbaggins1 who has waited very patiently for it to arrive in Jozi. Hope this book finds you in good health and enjoying the summer - i've included a few extra bits for you which i hope you will like. Please journal it when it arrives so I know that it made it! (ps hope you don't think me too cheeky for recycling the box which you sent to me but it was a perfect size!) Happy reading.

What a lovely surprise after the postal strike to get this book today plus all the nice goodies you sent with it. I love the tile and I'll stick it up somewhere as a reminder of a special serendipity.I'll most probably'll re-use the box as it's quite hard to find the right size, even here where we receive books from publishers daily!
