Book Review of The Bookshop

Author: Penelope Fitzgerald
Genre: Literature & Fiction
Book Type: Paperback
reviewed on


I needed some help in appreciating this author whose novels are comedies of manners, a British type of humor that often escapes the American reader. You can find an excellent essay on Fitzgerald in Joan Acocella's book Twenty-eight Artists and Two Saints.
