A Dance to the Music of Time: 1st Movement by Anthony Powell

5.0

I read this because Jonathan and Jeeves were reading it as their two-man book club selection in "Wake Up Sir." I wasn't disappointed. It took me a long time to get through it, but it was thoroughly enjoyable throughout. And you know sometimes when you read a book from an earlier period and you think, "I'm sure that was hilarious in 1919, but I'm not getting it"? This book wasn't like that at all. The narrator's school friends could have been mine. Powell's dry humor and memorable characters really made it treat. I'd like to read the second and third movements now. Recommended.
