Rupert Owen reviewed Mr Pye by Mervyn Peake
Review of 'Mr Pye' on 'GoodReads'
5 stars
The literal symptoms of moral dilemmas, Peake carves his way around the island of Sark and jaunts Mr Pye through his maze of brambled descriptive writing. Mervyn at his subtle comic best, a pleasant read and Mr Pye himself could have been a character easily plucked from a Brecht or Dickens novel, so well tailored is he.
