The Queen of the Tambourine by Jane Gardam

5.0

This book was excellent, and something I randomly picked up at a used bookstore mostly because it's a Europa edition. It took a minute for me to hit my stride with the book's tone and perspective, but once I did I found it charming, unsettling, unexpected, and banal. I did a lot of underlining of great turns of phrase and observations. I teared up and snorted a laugh. I really enjoy books written from the perspective of a maybe-unhinged woman.

I will definitely read more Jane Gardam in future.
