It's the fourth and final in an impressive series by A.S. Byatt, following The Virgin in the Garden, Still Life, and Babel Tower.I love the characters, the literary references, the deep and shallow dives on art, history, culture, science, psychology, and philosophy throughout the series. A Whistling Woman goes further into discussions of science, perhaps, than any other book in the series, and that enriches the material. Byatt writes in a more balanced and thoughtful way about religious people (if not religion) than many other modern writers, having several truly religious characters and presenting their journey and inner life in a respectul way. Many non-believing writers struggle (or don't really try) to write about religious people in an intelligent manner; Byatt is not one of them. (I just assumed without googling that she is not religious, pardon if that is an error on my part).Over the years, Byatt's books have led me to read DH Lawrence, EM Forster, and to learn much more about art, science, and philosophy in the 20th century that I would have without reading these novels.I found the plot of Whistling Woman to be immensely satisfying and well-paced, with all the pieces slowly moving together in a series of climactic moments that burned down slowly in the most pleasing way. Frederica is the dominant character of the series, and her life changes in unexpected ways in the third and fourth book; I was very surprised but pleased by the somewhat open ending for her character. I didn't like reading about Frederica as a young girl in the first 2 books, but in Tower and Woman, she is truly grown up and shown to have surprising depth. I sympathized with her more than I expected to. Daniel Orton is one of my favorites, and he is given an excellent heroic climactic moment. If Byatt ever chooses to write a book about Leo, I will read it in a shot.The new and fascinating character of Joshua Lamb-Ramsden (only appears in Whistling Woman) will bring me back to this book again, to ponder madness and the Manichean philosophy.I only wish I could get a full copy of Journey North and Babel Tower! (fictional writings by characters interspersed in the 3rd and 4th book).2 of 3 people found the following review helpful.Not With A Bang, But A WhisperBy Daniel MyersAlas, Byatt's "Yorkshire Tetralogy" has now come to a close for me, and I find myself asking what another reviewer here asks, "Why aren't there more books like this" Why, in short, aren't there more books frothing with the human experience in all its richness, which demand that their readers be intelligent and learned and to be able to cope with the uncertainties and sometimes terrible consequences of being a sensitive, thinking person on this planet In the event, here, at the end, I shall review both this book, and the tetralogy as a whole.I mentioned in my review of Babel Tower that I didn't much care for Frederica. Here, mirabile dictu, she comes to the same conclusion: "She didn't like herself." P.259 This recognition marks a watershed in the narrative. Frederica is still in the picture, but she becomes a bit more like her much-lamented sister, Stephanie, from the earlier books. Not thoroughly, of course. But, in the end, Frederica is actually likable. But she's not the main character in this mind-bending, cerebral novel. But if there is one, it is surely Joshua Ramsden. The account of his early years of growth and maturity leading eventually to his Manichaeism were the most riveting and, quite literally, spellbinding parts of the book for me. After he becomes a guru of sorts, the account thins out. But if ever a reader wanted to know what it FEELS like to hold this worldview, how one is led to it, how the world appears to one under its sway -or the sway of Gnosticism, I might add, which is almost identical - then this is the book to read.There is so much else here that fascinates and wows one in this book: literary allusions from Donne to Proust to Tolkien, and many others in between, an actually readable account of our reliance on metaphor, the sexual habits of snails and their implications for humans---All set against a late 60's backdrop in which the events of the "Babbletower" book within "Babel Tower," in so many respects, come to pass. The book is so gripping in so many different ways that are not for the faint of heart or mind that I think it no hyperbole to say that it's for readers who wish to venture into "the mental worlds in which the lost, and the contemplative, and the brave, and the foolhardy, wander." P.406As for the tetralogy, clearly no single idea will cover all four books. So, I'll just stay with a thought voiced by Frederica about King Lear (the play) in another of the books, one that keeps recurring to me: That Shakespeare had Cordelia killed as well as the king to show that there was no redemption. How many books does one read blurbs for that proclaim "A powerful novel of redemption" etc etc I'm not sure I quite know what people mean by it anymore, in a literary sense. Its use has become so widespread. If there is one thing that came through to me through these works, it's the theme of NON-REDEMPTION. It's not quite as bleak as King Lear. But these books give the lie to the notion that anything in the universe will necessarily redeem us. We muddle through an interesting, terrifying universe and make do as best we can.2 of 3 people found the following review helpful.One StarBy italia nappiHated itSee all 17 customer reviews...
