A review by sarah_dietrich
Offshore by Penelope Fitzgerald

4.75

Woah, what an ending! The first two-thirds were a lovely 4-star read, then the last third put it firmly in 5-star territory. 

The story of a group of eccentric lost souls who ended up together by chance. They come together and try to help each other navigate a world that has no patience for eccentricity or disorder.

This book is enormously quotable. My favourite: 
“Tilda cared nothing for the future, and had, as a result, a great capacity for happiness.”
