Giraffe
The story of a group of giraffes that end up in Prague zoo in the mid 70’s as told through the eyes of various individuals who interact with the animals during the journey to Prague and when they are settled at the zoo.
Beautifully written, it’s episodic, rambling nature robs the book of narrative momentum.
The novel feels like it’s going nowhere until the last 90 pages when the story comes together to a point in magnificent fashion.
Points are taken off for making me fall asleep reading it…

The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress
When I first read this, Heinlein’s last truly great book, I was blown away. Of course I was a pre-pubescent teenager at the time. While this remains a vastly entertaining romp, sadly it’s dated badly by some bizarre sexual politics and heavy handed political theorizing.
