Not for beginners

My book club chose this last month. It rewards patience more than any book I've bought this year. Delivery took a bit longer than quoted. Good, with the caveats above.

First purchase from this shop. There's real depth here that reveals itself on a second reading. I'd have loved an index, but that's on the original text. Recommended with reservations.
