she good?
>>25257856I remember thinking Jean Bodie was boring but the short stories were decent
>>25257856I don't really see what other people see in her, but a lot of people I follow online love her shit. Loitering With Intent was interesting
>>25258177Whoa! This response is heckin BASED! Can I suck your cock?
Bump cos I wanna hear more opinions. Got 'Miss Brodie' on my shelf - just need to get round to reading it.
I remember liking Memento Mori and The Ballad of Peckham Rye. both very dry cynical comedies in which complacent social groups are sent into a state of upheaval through an encounter with the inexplicable (the latter reminds me of Pasolini's Teorema in a way but rooted in a working class milieu). I would read more of her but it just hasn't been a priority
quite

She's an utter bitch and a genius at structure. Generally if you like any of the other popular bitches of the era (Waugh, Greene, Hamiliton) you'll like her because it's all terrible people having terrible things happen to them in a comfy fashionBasically if you like laughing at spite it should be good, I think anons might just not like Miss Brodie because it's a very Mean Girls type book
>>25258585>the latter reminds me of Pasolini's Teorema in a way but rooted in a working class milieunow I need to give it a read
