The World of Blogs and my Reading
I am just finishing a lovely book, Eva Menasse's 'Vienna', about which I will post much more later, which I discovered via Oliver Kamm.The next books lined up are from Sophie Hannah, recommended by Norm (I will not explain the connection). I can say she has me laughing, and some lines tell me she knows this Norm guy:
I may never run fast, or tower
Over Wimbledon's top seeds,
Or hit sixes like David Gower
But I have found a bath in Leeds.
(One should know I have a VERY soft spot for Leeds, nothing to do with Norm.)
Another line exposing the Norm connection:
Imagine that the man who never writes
Walks on the planet Mars in cricket whites
