Overall, 4**** — 3½*** to Robinson, 5***** to Memento Mori, and 3*** to The Ballad of Peckham Rye.

This is an omnibus volume, and it's a convenient assemblage of three early Spark novels (or perhaps "novellas" would be a better word, considering Spark's usual brevity and the mere 608 pages comprising all three works). It's a convenient assemblage, but a true Spark aficionado would be better off acquiring these in Spark Omnibus 1 (The Comforters and Memento Mori) and Omnibus 2 (The Ballad of Peckham Rye) – a more expensive acquisition, but including a total of ten Spark novels/novellas, five in each volume.
