J. Charles *by L***F on Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2014* Another winner. Charles nails the Christie-esque "mystery/house party" set up, though this is an oddly dark story about some truly ugly people. I loved both leads--I want to say especially Daniel, who felt both recognizable and also really original, but I thought Archie was wonderful too. To an unusual degree, each man illuminates the other on a fundamental level. They are very different but neither is as fully realized, romantically or thematically, without the other.You see this in Archie's very funny but also poignant attempts at confronting Daniel's "Fragmentalist" verse (which doesn't even rhyme properly!) Everything to do with Daniel's poetry was surprisingly multilayered and revealing."There were vivid images, but they were extraordinary ones, not poetic at all in the way Curtis vaguely felt poetry should be, with trumpets or mountains or daffodils. These poems were full of broken glass and water-which was not clean water-and scaly things that moved in the dark."The contrast between the Wordsworthian daffodils and scaly things in (not clean!) water was priceless. The part where Archie stops the other men from mocking Daniel's verse was one of those quiet moments of true heroism that really defines Archie's character. And in truth, his attempts to make sense of modern verse like Daniel's can serve as a stand-in for the experiences of a generation of people who could no longer exist within the comforting moral certitudes of the previous century.And then of course, there's Daniel, whose religion, class background, and sexuality mean that he saw through those illusions and empty certitudes--probably starting when he was about four years old. (It's a brilliant, potent touch that he's the son of a locksmith). He's a great picture of the kind of mind and perspective that brought us Modernism, but the frequent references to suicide in the story remind us how lonely and wretched that alienation could sometimes be. It's refreshing and heartening to find that character occupying the main role in an old-fashioned romance, with heroic rescues, love and, of course, happy-ever-afters.I'm teasing out a few of these themes because I used to teach this subject, but I don't want to imply that there is anything ponderous or pretentious in the literary allusions. They're built into the characters and plot in the most natural, understated way.There's plenty more I would like to praise here, but I'll ring off. Bottom line: this is a home run. Read it. It's great. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Can KJ Please Write A Sequel to This???? *by C***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2017* Daniel DeSilva is probably my favorite character ever written. Like. The snark. The walls. The falling for the same type of people despite better judgement. Talk about relatable.Overall, this story is filled with murder, mystery, and intrigue. I was pretty skeptical going in because I normally really don't like murder mystery type books, but this one got me from about ten pages in, and then I was completely helpless. I couldn't put the damn thing down. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Loved This! *by K***E on Reviewed in the United States on October 12, 2019* Stars: 4 StarsFormat: PrintSteam Level: SteamyCW: suicide and a anti-Semitism, homophobia, violenceI picked this up after reading Proper English because I enjoyed that book a whole lot. And this definitely didn’t disappoint! Tons of fun.Quick Thoughts:- Huzzah a disabled main character! And it talked about learning to do things himself after loosing his fingers. Really liked that line as someone who has had to learn do things differently also- Pat and Fen make an appearance! After reading Proper English it was nice to see them again, I liked that this book takes place a couple of years after that one and we see that they are still together. This is actually their first appearance the the Proper English is a prequel written after this- Good mystery. Even when I had and idea who was behind things, how it was all going to play out and the details kept me on the edge of my seat- It was interesting (even fun?) to read Curtis’ evolution of not being out to even himself to coming out and wanting to be with da Silva- Even though Curtis is fictional part of a fictional family tree of King Solomon’s Mines by H. Rider Haggard and I have not read it, I did not feel like I was missing anything in this story by not knowing that- I ended up really liking the main couple though I wasn’t sure I would at first. I was kind of irritated at both guys but they grew on me- It was interesting that the diverse characters were the heroes in this when traditionally they would have been coded (and known instantly to be) the villains in this sort of storyOverall, super enjoyed this book. I will have to read more. K. J. Charles is such a great writer! I’m glad I have it in print so I can push I mean lend it to friends. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/19398542-think-of-england-paperback-july-7-2015](https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/19398542-think-of-england-paperback-july-7-2015) --- *Product available on Desertcart Thailand* *Store origin: TH* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
