Journal Entry 1 by klaradyn from Praha, Praha Czech Republic on Friday, August 21, 2009
From amazon.co.uk: "A stunning collection of essays by the author of WHAT I LOVED, in which she addresses many of the themes explored in her novels - identity, sexual attraction, relationships, family, mental illness, the power of the imagination, a sense of belonging and mortality. In three cases, she focuses on the novels of other writers - Dickens, James and Fitzgerald. She also refers to her own novels, affording an unusual insight into their creation. Whatever her topic, her approach is unaffected, intimate and conversational, inviting us both to share her thoughts and reflect on our own views and ideas."

WILD RELEASE NOTES:

Absolutely adored WHAT I LOVED but this is more of a self-indulgent meander which becomes quite boring. Was disappointed as approached the reading of this with great expectation and excitement.
