Sunday, March 25, 2018. Bats in the Belfry - E.C.R Lorac. It is tempting to talk about last nights performance of The Fantastic Follies of Mrs Rich at the RSC, or the preceding visit to Coughton Court, ancestral home of the Throckmorton family (Warwickshire, and the midlands more generally are definitely gunpowder plot country, something that I'm only just starting to appreciate) both of which went a long way towards lifting the black mood the rest of the week had left me with.

Desperate Reader: August 2015

http://desperatereader.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html

Monday, August 31, 2015. The Battle of the Villa Fiorita - Rumer Godden. In her preface Godden says she's sick of stories about how divorce damages children, she wanted to write about children who choose to fight back. In the process she examines the repercussions of this and perhaps explores some of her own guilt around her divorce (she doesn't say that in the preface, but it's reasonable to assume that's what's happening here). Godden excels at this kind of thing - at showing how seemingly small things...

Desperate Reader: At Hawthorn Time - Melissa Harrison

http://desperatereader.blogspot.com/2015/07/at-hawthorn-time-melissa-harrison.html

Monday, July 27, 2015. At Hawthorn Time - Melissa Harrison. I read this book almost 2 months ago - shockingly lax blogging on my part to be only just getting round to it now - and my memories of it are no longer as fresh as they should be for which I can only apologise. The book opens as it closes, at the scene of a terrible car crash, we know from the first page that somebody has died, and by the end of the book know that it is either Jack the old fashioned tramp and itinerant farm labourer, Jamie, a yo...

Desperate Reader: 60 Degrees North - Malachy Tallack

Thursday, July 23, 2015. 60 Degrees North - Malachy Tallack. I always find it hard to write about books which elicit a really personal response, and as this one touches on something I've never been comfortable talking about (homesickness) this post will take me a while to work out. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. The Children Who Changed, by David Fletcher, illustrated by Belinda Hodson. A Penguin a week.

Desperate Reader: Quick Curtain - Alan Melville

http://desperatereader.blogspot.com/2015/07/quick-curtain-alan-melville.html

Thursday, July 9, 2015. Quick Curtain - Alan Melville. Quick Curtain' on the other hand positively fizzes with energy. I say this every time, but I'm a big fan of the British Library series of crime classics. I love the packaging, love the idea of digging through that vast archive for treasure (at least that's how I like to imagine the process), and most importantly love the books too. It's a collection which has really expanded my conception of 'golden age' crime. As Sayers also pointed out 'Light enter...

Bloggerel - Alma Books and Alma Classics: July 2012

http://www.bloggerel.com/2012_07_01_archive.html

Monday, 2 July 2012. Launch of new novel InterRail. Giving a speech at the Calder Bookshop and Theatre. Many people braved the sultry London afternoon and came to the Calder Bookshop Wednesday evening, preferring our company and a glass of wine to the footballing feats of Ronaldo, Iniesta and Fabregas. The even was the launch of my new novel, InterRail. And Jim Keeble’s The Happy Numbers of Julius Miles. Recently reviewed in the Guardian. And to encourage more people to embrace InterRailing, we are offer...

Записки реликтовой рыбы: A Perfect Crime, Or Two (1969) by Hubert Monteilhet

http://nemuri-neko.blogspot.com/2011/09/perfect-crime-or-two-1969-by-hubert.html

Saturday, September 10, 2011. A Perfect Crime, Or Two (1969) by Hubert Monteilhet. As usual with Monteilhet, the plot involves potential criminals and potential victims switching places, with murder lurking in every soul like a coiled snake, with everybody guilty – including the author! A very funny discussion of the (excellent but unfaithful) film adaptation of his earlier crime classic, Return from the Ashes. Thanks for this fascinating review - Id never heard of the book before to be honest so I hope ...

Записки реликтовой рыбы: The Man Who Won the Pools (1961) by J. I. M. Stewart

http://nemuri-neko.blogspot.com/2011/09/man-who-won-pools-1961-by-j-i-m-stewart.html

Sunday, September 11, 2011. The Man Who Won the Pools (1961) by J. I. M. Stewart. A young electrician in Oxford wins an enormous lottery jackpot and has some educational experiences among the higher and lower classes. Also not without its share of melodrama, but under much tighter control). All that money and then discovered its limitations. But such a subject would probably have been less open to melodrama (and, anyway, it's sure to have been covered by Henry James or somebody like that). Simple templat...

Annabel's House of Books. Noli domo egredi, nisi librum habes – Never leave home without a book. About: Info & Stuff. On April 3rd we were all stunned to see Iain Banks personal statement (click here. To read) that he had terminal cancer and just months to live. There was an outpouring of deeply felt sympathy, and also a need to celebrate the wonderful catalogue of work from this brilliant author. The Wasp Factory [1984] – Review. Walking on Glass [1985]. The Crow Road [1992]. A Song of Stone [1997].

Desperate Ravings | A little bit of everything MTG & SolForge

A little bit of everything MTG and SolForge. The Tale of Mardu Minus. April 21, 2016. Heya friends this is the story of me scrubbing out horribly, and then accepting Duress as my savior and running hot through a Classic. I was a little discouraged after such a big flop, but I shrugged it off and built Jeskai Dragons for the Standard Open. It was similar to the UW list, but with main deck Radiant Flames for the Humans decks. Long story short, I 1-4, getting mana screwed again, and playing Ramp twi...Not s...
