I like your review too - as you say, we found different things in the book, but it seems that we ultimately came to a similar conclusion. Glad you got it on the book of the month list at Big Green Bookshop - it deserves plenty of attention. I like that bookshop, too, and would like to go there more often, but am pretty loyal to the one even closer to me, Prospero's in Crouch End. Love the new site design, by the way! Andrew Hi Tom,
