Book Reviews - Review 315

A group of anarchists printing seditious material in a house in London discover that they have an informer in their midst. Various characters are not what they seem, and there is much subtle manipulation going on. As is no doubt inevitable in these groups, no one really knows whom they can and can't trust.

Can't remember much about this (only read it a few weeks ago but have read other stuff since). It is well-written and gripping - but cryptic. The last couple of paragraphs imply that the whole story may be a kind of "joke". But I couldn't work out what kind of joke.
