Seems my tastes have moved on.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, have a crack at a Peter Temple and let me know what you think.Paula Westonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15257475233897059248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872511076454850581.post-19683288076022685922008-02-11T20:00:00.000-08:002008-02-11T20:00:00.000-08:00This sounds like an interesting book.

I was choking on it.<BR/>Ian Rankin numbers are the same, Rebus does ma nut in.<BR/>I need to read more Australian books and while I'm psyching myself to tackle AB Facey, Mr Temple's work might just do the job.<BR/>Thank you.the ink-stained toe-pokerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08223704916998468741noreply@blogger.com
