A story about this — 4 years ago
I’ve finished it now. For the third time over what…? 30 years? No review promised; but I’m leaving it here for a while longer. It gets better with each reading. There are plenty of Fowles sites on the web. Plenty of spoilers too.
Fowles didn’t need to fiddle with it in 1977—one concession too many to perplexed readers in my view—but the “revised version” is, to my relief, no less seminal than the original, which seems, alas, no longer anywhere to be found.

WORTH CONSUMING!
This book was astonishing. The end leaves you no more sure about what happened than the rest. You’ll have to decide whether that’s a good thing.
