Three Bags Full
by Leonie Swann
It's almost a shame this book gets shelved as a mystery. While a murder mystery underpins the action on the page, the book has very little to do with mystery and hard-core mystery fans will probably come away feeling a little underwhelmed. This book is a pretty neat commentary on books and literature; it's about existentialism and the meaning of life; it's about the relationship between humans and animals; it's a sort of conversation with one of the most important novels in the English canon (and I'm not going to tell you which, because that would spoil *everything*).
No, it's not much of a mystery. But it's a multi-layered text packed with humor, mystery, and even weirdness, and I have a hunch it gets better with every read.
Also, I loved reading a book from the point of view of sheep!
