If anybody wants an obscure book recommendation, you can do a lot worse than 's King Dido. It took me awhile to get into it but now I love it. Part Greek tragedy, part Dickensian exploration of the back alleys and slums of the old , it also owes a lot to Austen and her uncanny ability to draw characters who don't understand their own predicament
