crabbygirl reviewed Old filth by Jane Gardam
Review of 'Old filth' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
this was on my TBR list for ages, and i truly enjoyed reading it.
the setting of the sun on the british empire, the winding down and death of a 'raj orphan'. there were little vignettes at the start, middle, and end of the book that were very shakesperarean in tone and setting, and framed the story well. old filth is both a man that everyone thinks he knows, and a man forgotten.
