Intimate, contemplative, richly built and meticulous.
17 profiled raters. Loved most by The Provocateurs.
A house that is the world, a narrator who is happier than he should be, and a plot that arrives like weather. I read it in a day and then read the first fifty pages again to see how she did it.
A few lines from each review; the whole review is on the critic's site. Not part of Taste Buds's numbers.
The gloriously strange follow-up to Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell is more than worth the lengthy wait

Susanna Mary Clarke (born 1 November 1959) is an English author known for her debut novel *Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell* (2004), a Hugo Award-winning alternative history. Clarke began *Jonathan Strange* in 1993 and worked on it during her spare time. For the next decade, she published short stories from the *Strange* universe, but it was not until 2003 that Bloomsbury bought her manuscript and began work on its publication. The novel became a best-seller. **Source**: [Susanna Clarke](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Susanna_Clarke) on Wikipedia.
