Julius Winsome in Publishers Weekly


Welcome back from the weekend! I found a nice present on my desk this morning in the form of another great early review for Gerard Donovan's (right) novel JULIUS WINSOME, this time from Publishers Weekly.
"Donovan's poetic, well-crafted third novel, like his debut, Schopenhauer's Telescope, shows how violence can infect and take over a person's life. ...Winsome's descent into anger, sadness, perhaps madness, begins when a deer hunter deliberately kills [his dog] Hobbes. From that moment, Winsome's need for revenge grows rapidly and irrationally. Readers will sympathize with him every step of the way."
