A miraculous return

After disappearing from the blogosphere for a few days, I've finally resurfaced. Over the past few days, I've read both In the Skin of a Lion and No Great Mischief. Both are excellent novels examining, among other things, working class life and the intersection of class and culture. However, The Island Walkers by John Bemrose still remains my favorite working class novel. In fact, it's actually my favorite novel ever, without a doubt. You should read it if you haven't already.
