What Fiction are you reading this week, August 1, 2021? [View all]
Happy August!
Children's Library, Fort Worth. Nice
The Winter King is such a pleasure to read. Author Bernard Cornwell's words just sing. A visiting princess is greeted with armloads of flowers. 'She looks like a dumpling, garlanded with parsley."
Cornwell has a very comprehensive website where you can learn all sorts of things about his books.

Listening to Something Rotten, by another incredible writer, Jasper Fforde. I can't begin to describe how witty and inventive this satire of politics and corporations is. And so prescient. Fforde is a book lover's dream. He also has a nifty website: https://www.jasperfforde.com/
I do hope you are enjoying whatever fiction you are reading this week as much as I am mine.
I have to zip off to a Zoom meeting but I'll be back. Carry on.
