Gah. I don't think I should read any more of Angela Morrison's books. She's got this knack of putting me through the ringer every single time. I can't wait to read the next book.

"Beatrice" was first published in 1890, and was H. Rider Haggard's 10th novel, out of 58 titles. Unlike so many of his other books, "Beatrice" is one that features almost no action scenes whatsoever; no lost races, no adventure, no battles, no supernatural elements. What it IS, is a beautifully written romance novel; indeed, is is one of Haggard's most emotional works. It tells the story of the ill-fated love affair between Beatrice Granger, an unmarried Welsh school teacher, and Geoffrey Bingham, an unhappily married barrister who lives in London. This all starts after Beatrice saves Geoffrey's life in a canoeing accident during a tremendous storm (in the book's only true action set piece), and the two become interested in one another. Trouble awaits, in the form of Bingham's wife Honoria (who's only interested in money and social climbing), Owen Davies (one of the richest men in Wales, who is morbidly obsessed with marrying Beatrice), and Elizabeth (Beatrice's older sister, who will do just about anything to marry Davies herself). So where in other books we might encounter a three-way love triangle, here we have what might be called a love...pentagon? I said before that this book contains no supernatural elements, but this is not quite true. Beatrice and Geoffrey do seem to have some kind of psychic link with one another, so that at times they can sense each other's thoughts and feelings, even when separated. Haggard's recurring theme of eternal love--of a love that survives beyond the grave--is very much in evidence in "Beatrice." This is a theme that was given play in his very first novel, "Dawn"; was much stressed in the four "She" novels; and appears in so many of his other works. Another theme that "Beatrice" seems to stress is the undesirability of the Victorian marriage state. Apparently, back in the late 19th century, divorce was seen to be a scandalous option, even for the most unhappily married couples. Haggard here shows us one such couple, and the problems that arise when this unfortunate union continues. Strangely, the author seems to have no sympathy for the problems that afflict Beatrice and Geoffrey as their romance continues. He even says so, in so many words. One must read between the lines to realize that Haggard does indeed feel for these poor unfortunates. Of all the Haggard novels that I have read (two dozen or so), this one seemed to me the most dated. It is hard to believe that so much scandal could attach to a couple because of a love affair. But hold on a moment! Didn't our 42nd president get himself into major "mishegas" as a result of his dalliance with an unmarried woman? Indeed, wouldn't a single school teacher in a small town TODAY find herself embarrassed if her affair with a married man of prominence were to come to light? Perhaps things haven't changed so much after all! (Although it is doubtful that a scandalized woman of today would go to the extremes that Beatrice goes to to put matters right!) "Beatrice," then, is NOT a novel for those looking for an action and adventure spectacle. But for those wishing a deliciously written novel with characters you can really care for, this might be just the ticket. At one point in this tale, Geoffrey thinks about sitting down one night with a good novel, and Haggard tells us that Bingham was "not above this frivolous occupation." Reading Haggard's "Beatrice," however, does not strike me as a "frivolous occupation." It is a serious-minded novel that the author obviously felt deeply about, and one that I do recommend highly.

I was given this for Christmas when I was about 12 by my elder sister. I really enjoyed it as a tale all by itself; little realising about the rest of Tolkien's world.

It's interesting that Camilla Nelson's first book (Perverse Acts) is a political satire, because CROOKED, her second book, is a crime novel with a distinctly political background. Set in 1960's Sydney, the book, whilst fictional, involves a number of well-known political identities by name, and one would assume less directly, a number of real-life criminal identities and events. CROOKED is the story of a series of violent killings, in the underworld of Sydney, culminating in the execution style killing of one particular character, whose little black book listing the names of prominent politicians and members of the police force, blows everything wide open. The links that are drawn between the underworld and organised crime, and the police and politicians is nothing new to Australian's - fans of true and fictional crime alike. A reader of CROOKED could be forgiven for expecting something particularly striking, even illuminating. The telling of the tale in CROOKED is done in a very different voice to that of recent stories of this style. It's told in rapidfire dialogue, peppered with a very stylised vocabulary and there are a lot of variances in the characterisation. There's a high propensity to use nicknames and that, along with the nature of the dialogue, definitely give the whole book a gangsterish feeling - reminiscent of earlier American gangster style films. It did give the book a slightly surreal feeling, the story set in Australia, yet it was hard to shake the feeling that any moment James Cagney was going to appear from behind a door. Given the building blocks CROOKED didn't quite hit any particular mark - perhaps the story of a small time nightclub owner and protection racketeer (it seems a real person) Richard Reilly, trying to protect his own patch in the wake of the defeat of the State Labor Government didn't impose enough import or risk to carry the entire book. Perhaps the mixing of the real characters and the fictional would work better for a reader with a more detailed knowledge of the Sydney underworld in the 1960's. But mostly I think it was a combination of a cast largely made up of crooks, gangsters and self-serving individuals - it was hard for this reader to find anybody to line up on the same side as; and a somewhat understated telling of the murkier side of the story. The killing, the levels of corruption, the schemes, scams and illegalities seemed to disappear into the snappy dialogue and catchy nicknames.

This was a delightful tale of love, redemption, friendship, and reconciliation. Easy, yet honest, read that hit my sentimental bi e share on, bringing me to tears at times. Ending a bit too tidy, but still relatively true to the characters' selves as drawn. *Rounded up at 3.5 stars.
