I knew a bit about Kingsley Amis and Roald Dahl already, but very little about the others, and the brief portraits in \u2018Lives of the Wives\u2019 provide a solid overview of their careers. As a group biography though, I think there needed to be a more central hook that linked the couples more coherently together, or at least some analysis that\u2019s a little more groundbreaking than the revelation that creativity and ego usually put strain on marriages.<br \/><span id=\"more-9261\"\/><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/img_1035.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"9165\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/2024\/07\/28\/the-booker-prize-2024-predictions-preferences-and-possibilities\/img_1035\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/img_1035.jpeg\" data-orig-size=\"177,284\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Intermezzo Sally Rooney\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/img_1035.jpeg?w=177\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/img_1035.jpeg?w=177\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-9165\" src=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/img_1035.jpeg\" alt=\"Intermezzo Sally Rooney\" width=\"177\" height=\"284\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/img_1035.jpeg 177w, https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/img_1035.jpeg?w=93&amp;h=150 93w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 177px) 100vw, 177px\"\/><\/a>Intermezzo by Sally Rooney<\/strong> is the Irish novelist\u2019s fourth novel and one of the most anticipated books of the year in literary fiction. It tells the story of two brothers, Peter and Ivan Koubek, whose father has recently died. Ivan is a socially awkward chess prodigy in his early twenties who falls in love with a divorced woman called Margaret who is 13 years older than him. Peter is a successful lawyer in his thirties who is juggling a messy relationship with college student Naomi, as well as his ex-partner Sylvia. Rooney explores her trademark theme of class status within romantic relationships with wisdom and wit in her longest novel yet. It\u2019s hard to ignore the marketing hype that surrounds Rooney\u2019s work these days, but I think her precise and coolly perceptive prose is a pleasure to read and it\u2019s encouraging to see the 2017 winner of the <a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/2017\/10\/29\/the-sunday-times-young-writer-of-the-year-award-shortlist-2017\/\">Young Writer of the Year Award<\/a> develop her career so successfully.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img_1064.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"9271\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/2024\/11\/26\/books-i-read-in-october-2024\/version-1-0-0\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img_1064.jpeg\" data-orig-size=\"1524,2339\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;Version 1.0.0&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Version 1.0.0&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"A Case of Matricide\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img_1064.jpeg?w=195\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img_1064.jpeg?w=500\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-9271\" src=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img_1064.jpeg?w=195\" alt=\"A Case of Matricide \" width=\"195\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img_1064.jpeg?w=195 195w, https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img_1064.jpeg?w=390 390w, https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img_1064.jpeg?w=98 98w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 195px) 100vw, 195px\"\/><\/a>A Case of Matricide by Graeme Macrae Burnet<\/strong> is the third and final book in the Inspector Georges Gorski trilogy following <a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/2017\/05\/07\/the-disappearance-of-adele-bedeau-by-graeme-macrae-burnet\/\">The Disappearance of Ad\u00e8le Bedeau<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/2018\/02\/18\/the-accident-on-the-a35-by-graeme-macrae-burnet\/\">The Accident on the A35<\/a>. Set in the sleepy French town of Saint Louis, Gorski investigates a case where a woman suspects her son of plotting to kill her. As with his stand-alone novels <a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/2016\/12\/24\/his-bloody-project-by-graeme-macrae-burnet\/\">His Bloody Project<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/2022\/02\/19\/books-i-read-in-january\/\">Case Study<\/a>, Burnet plays with the ambiguity of \u201cdiscovered\u201d source material with the trilogy supposedly written by Raymond Brunet who appears to be a mysterious character in his own right with the afterword revealing far more than the story itself. Burnet also defies the usual genre conventions of a thriller with a slow pace and the absence of a neat conclusion, which sounds frustrating but works well as a clever piece of meta-fiction.<\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img_1066.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"9275\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/2024\/11\/26\/books-i-read-in-october-2024\/img_1066\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img_1066.jpeg\" data-orig-size=\"326,500\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Steeple Chasing Peter Ross\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img_1066.jpeg?w=196\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img_1066.jpeg?w=326\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-9275\" src=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img_1066.jpeg?w=196\" alt=\"Steeple Chasing Peter Ross\" width=\"196\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img_1066.jpeg?w=196 196w, https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img_1066.jpeg?w=98 98w, https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img_1066.jpeg 326w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 196px) 100vw, 196px\"\/><\/a>Steeple Chasing by Peter Ross<\/b> is just as fascinating as\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/2024\/04\/20\/books-i-read-in-march-2024\/\">A Tomb With a View<\/a> which I read earlier this year. Following his tour of graveyards, Ross explored Britain\u2019s churches and cathedrals during and after lockdown, as a secular observer of their history, both architectural and social. From a remote monastery in Aberdeenshire to St Paul\u2019s Cathedral in central London, Ross seeks out some interesting and often quirky stories about a variety of churches across the country, but the book is really about the communities who support them. The post-lockdown context of his travels allows Ross to explore the role of churches in establishing and maintaining human connection at a time when they were forced to close for several months amid a long-term decline in congregation numbers. I particularly enjoyed the chapters about bat conservation and the work of the Churches Conservation Trust which highlighted how many churches are kept open by small numbers of volunteers who are often elderly. I hadn\u2019t expected \u2018Steeple Chasing\u2019 to be a state-of-the-nation book, but Ross\u2019s eye for detail and sensitivity towards his subject is moving and highly engaging.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><!-- .entry-content --><\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-links\">\n<p class=\"entry-categories tagged\">Filed under <a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/category\/books\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Books<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"entry-tags tagged\">Tagged as <a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/tag\/book\/\" rel=\"tag\">Book<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/tag\/book-review\/\" rel=\"tag\">Book Review<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/tag\/book-reviews\/\" rel=\"tag\">Book Reviews<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/tag\/carmela-ciuraru\/\" rel=\"tag\">Carmela Ciuraru<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/tag\/fiction\/\" rel=\"tag\">Fiction<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/tag\/graeme-macrae-burnet\/\" rel=\"tag\">Graeme Macrae Burnet<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/tag\/non-fiction\/\" rel=\"tag\">Non fiction<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/tag\/novels\/\" rel=\"tag\">Novels<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/tag\/peter-ross\/\" rel=\"tag\">Peter Ross<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/tag\/reading\/\" rel=\"tag\">Reading<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/tag\/reviews\/\" rel=\"tag\">Reviews<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/alittleblogofbooks.com\/tag\/sally-rooney\/\" rel=\"tag\">Sally Rooney<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><!-- .entry-links --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>November 26, 2024 \u00b7 7:51 pm Lives of the Wives by Carmela Ciuraru outlines the tempestuous relationships and careers of five literary couples: Radclyffe Hall and Una Troubridge, Elsa Morante and Alberto Moravia, Kenneth Tynan and Elaine Dundy, Kingsley Amis and Elizabeth Jane Howard, and Roald Dahl and Patricia Neal.
