A review by boorrito
Aiding and Abetting by Muriel Spark

3.0

Very funny in parts, let down by the bizarrely dated ending for a book written in 2000. It's also disappointing after how insightful the book was on how Britain's changed since the 1970s to have an ending which would have been old-hat in the 1960s.

Basically, there's no excuse for a book written in this century to end with "and then Lord Lucan was eaten by African cannibals". Like, c'mon, really?
