  Reading Matters — Authority: 466
  Fiction - paperback; Penguin Modern Classics; 160 pages; 2006.

  Reading Matters — Authority: 466
  Fiction - paperback; Faber and Faber; 480 pages; 2009. Review copy courtesy of the publisher. I love Irish literary fiction and Im quite partial to the odd crime novel, so when I first heard that Alan Glynns Winterland was described as "Dublin noir" I knew Id probably enjoy it. I was right. This is a cracking ...

  Man Seeking Coffee — Authority: 403
  Be ans: Ethiopia Mordecofe Roaster: Four Barrel Coffee Rating: 4- My plate is more than full at the moment; hopefully, I’ll get around to writing about my visit to Subrosa soon.

• The Space Between Us by John MacKenna

  
  Reading Matters — Authority: 466
  Fiction - paperback; New Island Books; 282 pages; 2009. At what point do you decide to abandon a book? I ask, because I came very close to abandoning this one. I struggled with the first 54 pages, not quite believing the dialogue (too verbose, too artificial) nor the characters (too one-dimensional, too false). But ...

• Legend of a Suicide by David Vann

  
  Reading Matters — Authority: 466
  Fiction - paperback; Penguin; 240 pages; 2009. Review copy courtesy of the publisher. David Vanns Legend of a Suicide is a deceptive book. I started it, thinking it was a novel, and was mid-way through it before I clocked that it was no such thing. This is actually a series of stories, albeit about the same ...

• Quartet by Jean Rhys

  
  Reading Matters — Authority: 466
    Fiction - paperback; Penguin Modern Classics; 144 pages; 2000. It seems ironic or pre-determined (or something), because no sooner than I write a post about bleak books and ask you to submit your suggestions, than I pick up Jean Rhys debut novel, Quartet . Ms Rhys doesnt necessarily have a monopoly on ...

  Man Seeking Coffee — Authority: 403
  Name: Camino Location: 3917 Grand Avenue, Oakland, CA Rating: 4- It’s a common refrain amongst those who obsess over good coffee that well-respected restaurants rarely get the stuff right. At least with espresso, you can understand why the results are often poor. Producing good espresso takes ...
