In The Wolf's Mouth, Foulds - C +

                                               This novel came to my attention because it was highly praised by reviewers. It is the story of an Englishman, an American of Italian descent, and a Sicilian-American whose paths all cross in Sicily after  the liberation in 1943.  It is beautifully written and extraordinarily effective depicting the random violence of war.  But there is no real narrative, no particular beginning and ending, just a well-written novel.
