Jamaica? Excuse me?

IT WAS interesting to see the choices of top reading aficionados invited to state the best book they had read in 2015 (Mail).

Not one chose Marlon James’s 2015 Man Booker Prize winner A Brief history Of Seven Killings.

It’s written in Jamaican patois, so much so that I couldn’t understand a word and, after 100 pages, haven’t a clue what it’s about.

Its acclamations are endless so I’m obviously missing out somewhere.

I’m just so relieved that not one of those 15 experts made it their choice. NORMAN WANSTALL,

Burford, Worcs.
