902 The Birthday King a romance, by Gabriel Fielding (read 25 June 1967) While I did no post-reading note on this novel I recall that it is well-written. Of the author there is this statement, found on Wikipedia's article on him: "It is a matter for grave doubt that Mr. Fielding could write anything from a postcard to a lexicon without perception and grace and brilliance." —Dorothy Parker
