A review by ronne
Basil by Wilkie Collins

adventurous dark emotional mysterious slow-paced

3.0

I read this as a Wilkie Collins completist and you can see the early traces of some of his style in the way the story is told. The first half of the book is slow and tedious but it picks up pace once the dastardly plot is revealed! It certainly isn't the best introduction to his work and I can't recommend it but I'm glad I read it.
