Customer Reviews

Boring - Rated 1/5
This is the first book I have ever speed read. I am normally very diligent about reading every word but I found the dialogue unfortunately very repetitive and as a result, boring. It is also very childish in it's style which I found endearing to start with but when you realise it is the memories of a childhood written by an intelligent adult it doesn't fit.


Mister Pip - Rated 5/5
This book was absolutely fantastic. Very moving and tragic, but amusing in places. The best book I've read for a long time! I cannot stop thinking about it and think I will read it again.


A nice book to depress you! - Rated 2/5
When i read the first few pages of this book i thought it looked quite promising, however as the story continues the book slowly gets more depressing and depressing. It certaintly is not a page turner!


Mister Pip - Rated 5/5
What an amazing book and an incredible story. Once you start it is very hard to put down. The book made me laugh and cry and feel very humble.


loved it - Rated 5/5
In the terrorish finale to Waugh's A Handful of Dust, the civilized Tony Last finds himself jailed in a jungle village, forced to spend his days reading Little Dorrit to the inerudite Mr Todd. In the world of Mister Pip, however, reading D1ckens represents liberation for a community ravaged by combat. The winner of the 2007 Commonwealth Prize, Lloyd Jones's novel is set in a village on the Papua New Guinea island of Bougainville during a brutal civil war there in the 1990s. Jones covered it as a journalist, and this delicate fable never shies away from the realities of daily life shadowed by violence. As Matilda, the thirteen year old narrator, begins her story, a blockade has begun. Helicopters circle, the generators are empty and all the teachers have fled. Apart from the presence of pidgin Bibles, civilization might never have touched the village. Loved it!!! I would also recommend, if you missed reading TINO GEORGIOU'S masterpiece--THE FATES, go and read it.
