Books I have Read - Netherland


Netherland

A strange book about a dutch man from London who winds up in New York and joins the local cricket team - and meets a man who some years later is found dead in the river. This book is about the memory that discovery invokes.

Not exactly the best book I've had but I have to confess I still think about the main characters as they were so strong.

What interests me is why an Irish man has written about a Dutch man who is obsessed by cricket....hmmmmm
