After all, most of us are cowards, but it's simply not on to shout it from the rooftops.

Loved, loved, loved GREENBANKS. Beautiful writing, characters who are fully alive, and raw emotion throughout the text. It's not tidy - some characters get happy endings, some don't, some who deserve comeuppance get it, some don't - but it's like life. And that is lovely.

Friday night game strong with a new translation of a Korean classic.

Mem.: Must beware of growing tendency to indulge in similar idle speculations, which lead nowhere, and probably often give me the appearance of being absent-minded in the society of my fellow-creatures.

Completely charmed by this story of four English strangers who rent an Italian castle together, and how the wisteria and sunshine heals their heartaches. And now I'm pricing plane tickets to Rome.
