VENGEANCE IS MINE | Kirkus Reviews

A book I have very much enjoyed this week: "And So Do I" by Bradford writer Malachi Whitaker, a sort of chronicle of 2 years in the late 1930s, first published in 1939 & newly republished. Irreverent, humorous, often startlingly honest, with an undercurrent of existential bewilderment and searching.
