A review by jasmijn
An Evening of Long Goodbyes by Paul Murray

3.0

Hmm. This one didn't quite do it for me. I expected a highly funny read like the blurbs and quite some reviews here promised, but I felt it all fell a bit flat. Charles, the main character / narrator, was too much of a caricature to me, which would have been fine had the rest of the book not been quite so serious. Still, 3 stars for writing, originality and helping me read Frank in an Irish accent.
