Book review - "Hangover Square" by Patrick Hamilton

 Starts marvellously, with an interior monologue of a crazy man who is going to kill a woman, with short chapters... but all those short chapters basically repeat that, so this was hard going. Surprisingly as I was looking forward to it, I liked the movie, and the writing is actually good. It's just a short story that has been expanded. So I felt anyway. The final chapter is great but that's because something actually happens. Set just after Munich and ends on the invasion of Poland.
