Mor Books

Finished Bend Sinister, and yes we knew he would die, only didn't know how. The how was good, the author fantastic. I'm (vaguely) intersted to know what he was like in life.

Yesterday day read Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf still haven't looked up Virginia Woolf, will do so today probably, in wikipedia, the source of all usually correct knowledge, provided the persons talked about don't find out there's skinny on them... I read half coming in to work and half going back, and it really did work well, I finished maybe 10 min before I got off the bus to trot home.

I've now accepted from my wife Roald Dahl's The BFG and funny enough the reading isn't quick. For one thing, I'm savouring as I read, it's a different genre. It didn't occurr to me until I opened the cover, but it's the same author that wote James and the Giant Peach and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. He also wrote Charlie and the Magic Glass Elevator, which I suppose is why at the end of the Chocolate Factory movies, there is a glass elevator. I suppose the author took it a little further in the follow up book. I knew Roald Dahl sounded familiar
