William Nicholson's Secret Intensity of Everyday Life

I was asked to blurb this novel earlier this year and liked it so much I wanted to review it instead. Here's my review in today's Boston Globe. In addition to being a fabulous novelist and screenwriter, Nicholson has a very classy pedigree: his wife, Virginia, was named after her great aunt, Virginia Woolf, and her grandmother was Vanessa Bell. I hope the review brings Nicholson many new American readers.
