What an hilarious evening we have had at Lynne's home - the Pooh like Capital Letters, the sparse tight writing, the innuendos and the wit of Lawrence Durrell's short stories reduced us to tears of laughter.
Thanks for choosing it.

ReplyDeleteThank you all for coming to my house. It was a lovely evening and I was pleased that we all got a good laugh out of the book. I found myself thinking about the short story format and how incredibly difficult it must be to produce such a well-crafted book. There was no let up in the pace and the dry humour. The stories were so easy to read that the author's skill went almost unnoticed. Altogether a jolly read that is worth going back to just to appreciate the author's thorough command of the short story form. I look forward to Chris's choice.
