Many thanks for these really interesting finds, Bookworm_Girl. I found the review of the book particularly interesting, though I don't agree with the reviewer about Tóibín making James cold. Perhaps the reviewer is an extravert! As an introvert I didn't find James cold, at least in an uncaring sense, but rather very reserved and needing space between him and others.

I can't help feeling that he was the product of a pretty odd family when you think about the father, and William, and Alice. But then I suppose we are all a bit odd in our own ways!
