`...The short stories, the Paris book, the first two novels, parts of the Africa and Death books...' How rare & what a pleasure it is to find oneself in complete agreement over a choice of books. There are bits of the others - For Whom the Bell Tolls, even Across the River... - which I would add on purely sentimental grounds (where I was, WHO I was when I read them & so on.) But when in due course Tim joins me in the old folk's home there will be no discord as we pass our favourites from one wheelchair to the other. Scottie B.
