Keay named John Fowles's The French Lieutenant's Woman as a tremendous and amazing novel, stating that it strongly bears rereading despite perhaps being less fashionable with contemporary readers than it was in previous decades. In contrast, while discussing the same author's broader bibliography, she briefly mentioned John Fowles's novel The Collector, noting that it contains creepy elements and making it clear that she would not particularly recommend that specific book to others.
