I'm loving this book. Bruce's aunt recommended it to me years ago. What took me so long? Anyone else read this fine novel by Marilynne Robinson?

No! The title rings a bell, but I don't know it, no. It will have to be my next Amazon order ...

Amazon. Bara, where's your library?! Are free public libraries just an American thing?

Heh heh! My mother would be in your corner, Ann, if she were alive. She single handedly upheld the African library service.
But me. Well - let's just say I read in the bath. The STATE of the things by the the time I've bathed with them, slept with them ..
Easier by far to feel free to stand on my head on them, flatten them out and pass them on to Oxfam!
Don't ever lend me a book. I'd be too embarrassed to return the crinkled remains.
But we enjoy each other.

Ah, I see. I once let my friend Gilah borrow a book. She informed me that she could not return it because she dropped it in the Gulf of Mexico!

;D That's much more exotic than dozing off in the bath. GO, Gilah! Oxfam love me though..
