Part 2 of Koestler's autobiography

First of all, it's only worth reading this book if you've read Part 1, Arrow in the Blue. If you've already done that, you're probably thirsting for Part 2, but I must frankly admit that you may find Arrow in the Blue runs at a deeper level than The Invisible Writing, which is the account of his life from 1932-40 (giving just a short outline of the experiences already covered in greater detail in Dialogue with Death and Scum of the Earth), without as much philosophical commentary. I've seldom read two parts of a book which were so different in style, but they're equally enjoyable.
