A review by claire_fuller_writer
Look At Me by Anita Brookner

4.0

I bought this because a couple of reviews of my third novel, Bitter Orange, said this followed a similar story, and I was intrigued. It is about a lonely woman called Frances (!) who becomes entranced by a glamorous couple who play with her for a while before discarding her. So it does share that similarity but is much more introspective and contemplative. I've only just started reading Brookner, and this wasn't one of my favourites (I much prefer Hotel du Lac, and Family and Friends), but it does still have of course Brookner's wonderful writing. I just would have preferred a bit more to happen.
Probably 3.5 stars.
