A remarkable novel - By: , 11 May 1999
In 'Original Bliss', A.L. Kennedy skilfully tells the story of how a loving relationship develops, & ultimately saves, two damaged people: an abused housewife who has lost touch with her spirituality, & an expert in cybernetics addicted to violent pornography. Hardly the most attractive of topics, one might think! However, don't let the subject matter deter you from experiencing this truly remarkable novel.

The story is superbly told, generating both understanding & sympathy for the central characters. It is beautifully conveyed, absorbing, & powerful, leaving no doubt that Ms Kennedy has a wonderful gift for prose. If you appreciate talent, you will appreciate 'Original Bliss'.
