Just finished my 2nd read of Julian Barnes “Noise of Time”. It’s easy to wonder why anyone would want to read a fictionalised account of Shastokovich’s biography.
But....
I would read this book any number of times. I just love the way Barnes weaves his literary prose.
There is magic in going back to the Russia of the 50s and 60s.
A great read - overall 9/10.
A 201 page read. Brings my 2018 reading total to ~2290 pages :-)
Worth every minute of your time.
