It does seem like the kind of book you would enjoy.

I'm heading for Net Galley. I'd be interested in "Enemy at the Gates" if it formed the basis for the Jude Law-Ed Harris 2001 film, though I wouldn't know which came first, the book or the film.Prashant C.

Very '70s." And then I looked back to your headline!<br /><br />This does sound to be very much a 1970s offering. I read lots of them at the time, and quite possibly this one. Most of them were pretty forgettable.noirencyclopediahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02843963811822980754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-5479763125758995132015-10-21T07:46:55.646-07:002015-10-21T07:46:55.646-07:00Margot.

I liked it, enjoyed it and didn't wish I was reading anything else at the time, but I probably won't remember too much about it in 6 months time. Nothing wrong with books like that though! col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-71896803747006264112015-10-21T07:23:59.235-07:002015-10-21T07:23:59.235-07:00It certainly sounds like a decent read, Col.

Sounds like an interesting look at the times, too. Glad you enjoyed it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
