What Novel Is This Quote/Comparison From?
August 30, 2015 2:53 PM   Subscribe

My Search-Fu is utterly failing me. Where did I read the line (paraphrased): "He was like a tennis player who mistakes his best game for his everyday game [or natural level or basic capability]". I want to say it was in a novel by a female author,: Lessing, Christie or Woolf maybe? I might be completely wrong. Fairly sure the narrator's voice was female. Can anyone help?

Response by poster: Might also be Winterson. Might be anyone. All assistance appreciated!
