RG Ely January -Spark's Satire

Spark’s Satire  by Muriel Spark The survivors of a plane crash become involved in murderous intrigue on a remote Atlantic Island; the complex machinations of a group of nuns come to mirror the events of the Watergate scandal; a bogus psychiatrist struggles with two patients who both claim to be the missing Lord Lucan… These three short novels from different phases of her glittering career are a wonderful demonstration of Muriel Spark’s range, subtlety and wit and make for a thoroughly entertaining way of celebrating her 2018 centenary.
