Some new book reviews

[liv]

I've had a good, if busy week. Life is going very well for me, for reasons I can't discuss in public posts, but which mean that I have to rush about madly making sure I take advantage of several doses of extremely good luck. It's a sign of my busyness that I've entirely failed to restock on all the non-Passover goods that I got rid of for the festival. So there's still no pasta in my house...

The week started with a very nice communal Seder meal here in Dundee, and ended with my opening a really good session of my interfaith dialogue group.

I've managed to write a couple of book reviews, though I still have a considerable backlog. So here are my thoughts on Le comte de Monte-Cristo and Bridge of Birds.

Thanks for reminding me about Bridge of Birds - I read it, must have been about 15 years ago now, but must have put it out of my mind. The adventures of Number Ten Ox and Master Li are flooding back bit by bit now, and I really ought to reacquaint myself with them...

We've just bought our first post-Pesach pasta, too...
