Balthazar by Lawrence Durrell

4.0

Second of four in the Alexandria Quartet; review of the Quartet forthcoming. In the meantime, another favorite quote:

"Fact is unstable by its very nature. Narouz once said to me that he loved the desert because there 'the wind blew out one's footsteps like candle-flames.' So it seems to me does reality. How then can we hunt for the truth?"
