pickSo it seems the books that best fit my mood right now are very introspective and philosophise about family and relationships. I loved this. I think @Cathythoughts put this on my radar years ago!
Hartmann and Fibich were orphans evacuated from Germany in WW2. We meet them as old men examining their lives. Although opposites in temperament and outlook they have been bonded in friendship, leant upon each other for life. ⬇️
@Gissy please and thank you check your email when you have time.
1. I like to keep moving forward! But maybe the 50‘s!
2. Hardback or paperback.
3. Older - you‘re only 10 years older than my oldest.
4. No - born in Pittsburgh but grew up and live in suburbs of Philadelphia.
5. 😘😘

pickA quote from Latecomers. Anita Brookner fast becoming one of my favorite writers. A story of two young men , sent to London from Berlin as refugees in the war. Who become close friends , grow old together with their wives & children. So beautifully written & read by Andrew Sachs.
I‘m loving this book
1. Andrew Sachs is a a seriously good narrator ( I‘ve only ever known him ( and loved him) in Fawlty Towers ) such gravitas in his reading.
2. The way She writes ( for me ) is as if you were sitting by your fireside, or by a window, or a place in nature... & you have become hypnotized by your life & memories... she is so good ....
so good 💫
Next up Latecomers... a different style of story from Anita Brookner & read by Andrew Sachs , who seems a perfect choice considering his own history, as the characters in the book are young Jews when they escape Nazi Germany ...
1. Books in a bookstore are ALWAYS cool!
2. Black nurse accused of murdering baby of racist skinhead
3. Urban fantasy
4. Rainy... and no clue when it will ever end 😖
5. Laundry? And our usual breakfast out. Not sure what else is on the agenda

Argh, I've felt frazzled all day after oversleeping and missing my train to go to the city for training at the Victorian State Library where I've just got a volunteer job. Now I'm exhausted but still on edge. I HATE being late!! Need to relax and read but can't focus on the page.
Anyone else had one of those days today?
Brookner madness at a local used bookstore!
I'm reading this at the moment, close to halfway through and really enjoying it. Has anyone else read this?
