The Egyptologist by Arthur Phillips |
|
Anyone here read this? I picked it up in a free book pile and wondered if it really were "A wonder, a work of imaginative prowess..." I'd never heard of it before.

Got it for Christmas the year it came out, and found it to be a real pageturner. I've read it twice since. Lent it to my husband, both sons, and son's girlfriend. Thought it was one of the best fiction books I've ever read.

3. I had it in my hand at the library and put it back because I already had a couple |

But after seeing the responses so far I might have to get it.

Which took a lot of fortitude. I don't know why, as I'm not dumb and I've gotten through The Brothers Karamazov, Anna Karenina, East of Eden, Special Topic in Calamity Fiction and many other interestingly "high-brow" books this last year. But, I didn't know what the hell was going on during The Egyptologist throughout.
