I heartily recommend "Vinland", by George Mackay Brown. It is a very long time since I read anything so moving. If you have any interest in historical, Scottish, or even fantasy fiction, I urge you to read it.

Also picked up a pTerry again - "Soul Music". Worth a third read.

On non-fiction, wondering if we can justify a newer, bigger world atlas than our 14 year old one.

Oh well - back to the grindstone.

Well, geography (at least the political kind) has changed quite a bit in the last ten years or so - that might be a good excuse.

It's the kind of thing that sometimes gets reduced in August/September for Back to School, so it might be worth looking out then.

Ah - good idea. Thanks.
