Can't quite remember what brought me to William Boyd's book. Maybe a WSJ review? I was reading something about him somewhere and thought immediately of Graham Greene and Tom Sharpe. Decided on A Good Man in Africa after a quick read over the book's description.
Hilarious. I will read more from Boyd. There's one particular scene here that reminded me of my ROTFL while reading Sharpe's Wilt. This book is a bit of Wilt mixed with Greene's The Honorary Consul. Wonderful.
In other news, W&P continues. I think I'm just over 60% done, and that's page 780 or so. Never ending...
