[...] I also greatly enjoyed a trio
of very different mysteries. Poet James Lasdun's first novel, The
Horned Man (Cape), had its roots in Nabokov's Pale
Fire, but expanded the theme of the unreliable narrator to a
near-lunatic degree, weaving a tortured but highly satisfying story of
academia, psychotherapy and violence.
