Has Anyone Read The Wasp Factory?

[Eleena]

Martin Clunes mentioned it, sounded interesting.

[waterboatman]

No. But I agree, it sounds interesting!

Iain Banks wrote it. I've read some of his books. Very good. I shall look out for this one.

Does it have a sting in the tail ?

[chanel5]

Yes, i have read it. A bit harrowing in places but definitely worth the read. I'd recommend it.

Yes - highly recommended. It was the one that put Iain Banks on the literary map.
Some of his subsequent novels were a little weird for my taste, but I did particularly like Espedair Street, The Crow Road, Whit, Dead Air, and Stonemouth.
He wrote some great science fiction too, under the name Iain M Banks. Tragically he died in 2013 at the age of 59.

Thanks everyone, my next download then. OG ... from the sample I've read, it certainly does!
