I'm in a tangle with all the book stuff I've got going on simultaneously:
Listening to
The True Story of The Kelly Gang - Now up to disc 3 (They can pack a LOT of talk on those CDs). Too early to comment, but a lot of the Ned Kelly (famous Oz outlaw hero) stuff is familiar territory for Australians.
Then I read a book that an old friend wrote, but would rather not comment on my assessment of his writing.
THEN I rediscovered an English writer on my shelves ... Maggie Gee -
Where Are the Snows. I read a bit of that, then get a longing for the first of her novels I ever read, which was discovered in a used bookshop while on holiday in Bali, years ago -
Light Years. I have have always wanted to read it again but it seems to be out of print & I've had no success finding another copy. Well today I found one in my (recently joined) local library. So now I'm reading that, too. She's a terrific writer. Wonderful. Have any of you read her?
Anyway, this is fun!
