The Book of Evidence by John Banville

3.0

John Banville writes luxurious prose and The Book of Evidence is unsurprisingly lush with gorgeous language. The story has an incredible windup, the opening left me giddy with anticipation, and while it's not poorly plotted, it did not deliver as strongly as I hoped.

Recommended for Banville fans but should not be used as a starter book to get a friend hooked on his work.
