JUNE, 2013

OUT OF OFFICE HOURS

In January I named a few books that I had enjoyed reading that were nothing to do with my agency but read for pure pleasure and would recommend. A few people have asked me recently what I've been reading over the past six months, so here are some titles that I have loved and would be my own selection of summer reading..in no particular order:

Fiction

DOPPLER Erlend Loe

MRS PALFREY AT THE CLAREMEONT Elizabeth Taylor

GONE GIRL Gillian Flynn

A SUMMER OF DROWNING John Burnside

A DELICATE TRUTH John le Carre

LAST FRIENDS Jane Gardam

THE LAST OF THE VOSTYACHS Diego Marani

Non Fiction

WEEDS Richard Mabey

A STING IN THE TAIL Dave Goulson

WINTER KING Thomas Penn

JUST KIDS Patti Smith

OLD DOG

Just got early copies of Barney Bardsley's beautiful memoir with the irresistible photo of her elderly dog taken a few months before she died...I defy any dog owner to walk past it on a shelf! Publication is late July with big orders from supermarkets coming in.

And Charles Timoney's AN ENGLISHMAN ABOARD has just completed its 5 days as Radio 4 Book of the Week and sales have rocketed. The Radio 4 effect is very powerful...
