Arbieroo reviewed Testimonies by Patrick O'Brian
Review of 'Testimonies' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
This is an early and little known O'Brian novel (having never been printed in paperback before this edition). One might think O'Brian's signature is adventure stories, or perhaps sea stories - in which case this would appear a-typical, being set in a remote valley in North Wales. Looked at a different way, this book is entirely in keeping with the more famous works of its author; it relies on deep character study and interaction to tell a powerful story.
