Reading ? First, 'Moscow 1941' by Rodric Braithwaite - quite enthralling bit of history; 'Status Anxiety' by Alain De Botton - lent to me by Dave, which is quite interesting (but I think he needs it more than me...), and I suppose confirms much ! 'Phases' by Bernard Lievegood, I couldn't resist dipping into, while doing a bit of teaching at a College for therapists, educators, etc (www.emerson.org.uk), which is about how (the blurb)"the human being meets certain milestones - from the period of adolescence to old age - which are universal in nature. Regardless of background, critical stages must be passed through." Psychology, of a sort. There you have it - jumping from one to the other...couldn't stop myself...bookaholic..
Steve - Hope you enjoyed Polar Star. The next in the series, 'Red Square', is a favourite of mine in the series. Have just finishes the sixth, Stalin's Ghost, which was brilliant - with its shattered lives, and the historical references ...What have you been reading since ?
