What's hot in fiction in Kuala Lumpur? Have you read any of these? #fiction #newrelease #newfiction #newbooks #bookstack #books #igbooks #booklover #malaysianreaders #bookstore #bibliophile #booknerd
REVIEW** Arthur Less is a failing midlist author, about to turn fifty, whose ex-boyfriend is going to be married. In order to escape the wedding he plans a world trip incorporating various literary events to which he has been invited. But his meticulous planning goes awry, as plans are wont to do in novels, and he tumbles through a series of misadventures involving love, death and literary revelations. Throughout it all, Arthur grapples with his past loves, his writing, and his future. . Less is a comedic satire on what it is to be a midlife American abroad ruminating on the meaning of his life. It could be ponderous, but in Greer's hands it becomes a deliciously funny story of an everyman clown who has spent his life getting it wrong while seeking to do the right thing. Greer's writing is light and lively as he ponders the mysteries of the human heart. . Winner of the 2018 Pullitzer Prize for fiction. Have you read it or any other of Greer's works? This pic was taken in Singapore looking towards the Marina Bay Sands. #bookreview #currentlyreading #currentreads #bookstagram #bookish #books #igbooks #nowreading #bibliophile #booknerd #less #pullitzerprizewinner #andrewseangreer #pulitzerprize #americanliterature #fiction #singapore
