March was quite a month of reading. I think the Vargas Llosa wins as my favorite of the month but The Somme and To The Lighthouse were also terrific. Olive Grove in Ends is a very strong debut novel and The Museum of Abandoned Secrets is very timely. I think it‘s the type of novel (weighty historical fiction) one should read to get a small picture of what another country is like. The Black Jacobins is a stellar history of the Haitian Revolution.
