Why read it?
1 author picked With as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Harington was one of the great unheralded—or at least under heralded—novelists of the last fifty years, bursting with stories and whole populations of flawlessly captured human voices, and With was one of his highest achievements.
