Angels & Insects: Two Novellas by A.S. Byatt
4.0
This book joins two novellas, like butterfly wings affixed to a thin body. I came for the first - about Victorian Era entomologists. I surprisingly loved the book for the second, about Victorian Era spiritualists.
Both have Byatt's slow pace, theological concern, and literary sensibilities, wrapped around a juicy love plot. Recommended for people who love Charles Darwin or Alfred Tennyson - and especially for those who love both.
