Under the Net

I enjoyed Under the Net by Iris Murdoch which was originally published in 1954 and republished by Vintage Classics in 2002.  It is the story of Jake Donaghue living in London without a "proper" job and sponging off his friends.  He ekes out a living translating a French novelist's books in to English.  When he is kicked out of his accommodation he must find a new residence and perhaps even get a job.  Jake has a number of adventures, even going to Paris to try and find his love, Anna.  It is well written and interesting. 31/2/5
