A review by wyemu
The Eye in the Door by Pat Barker

3.0

Focusing on Billy Prior, whom readers will have met in the first novel in this series, 'The Eye in the Door' has a very different feel to it than 'Regeneration'. Many characters from that first novel return, including psychiatrist William Rivers but the overall tone is darker than previously. Prior continues to be a difficult character to like, with his lack of apparent morals and disregard for those around him. He is a difficult character to like and I found myself tossing between routing for his survival and happiness, and struggling to find any redeeming qualities. If you enjoyed 'Regeneration' then definitely read this.
