A review by sohnesorge
Lost for Words by Edward St Aubyn

4.0

As beautifully written and bitingly funny as anything else he's written, but I kept wishing there were more of it, and that, like his Patrick Melrose novels, there would have been a more serious intent behind it all. As it is, I loved the send up of the literary prize process and seeming effortlessness of the writing ... wanting more "meat" and not wanting it to end so soon, I could only give it four stars. Great stuff, as usual.
