A review by theogb451
Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell by Susanna Clarke

4.0

Frustrating but great. The atmosphere and ideas are so wonderful but the style of telling is meandering and hard to latch onto. It is a perfect pastiche of the one Dickens I have read: The Pickwick Papers but combining that with an actual strong story narrative is part of the issue for me, 4 not 5 stars.
