Such a very intelligent, perceptive writer. I read Nicholas Freeing back in my librarian days and must give him another try.<br /><br />Ayak, I hope you can get hold of one of her books as a taster. Thanks for telling me about Barbara Nadel. I've read Ian Rankin, but she's a welcome new name for me to try.<br /><br />Doesn't sound like any of us will be getting much housework done at this rate :-)Perpetuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01214396019726161983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3705825161954545710.post-38093519838241619722011-02-26T11:49:10.175+00:002011-02-26T11:49:10.175+00:00Oh she sounds like an author I would enjoy.
