First Impressions

This week's competition, in which you have to identify a book from its opening sentence, is from an English novel by a man who once commanded a rocket ship:

"He was struggling in every direction, he was the centre of the writhing and kicking knot of his own body."

The winner receives a £25 Blackwell's voucher and the closing date is February 26.
