About Me

this is what i want; a giant bed with too many pillows, and my much loved tom beside me, a glorious old home surrounded by trees and gardens, a library with a rackety old wooden ladder and too many books, a dog and a cat to play with, a lot of love, not so much noise, a few more sweet dreams, a chance to be more..

Books:

i read a lot. i love chekhov, and his russian comrades. i adore tracy chevalier and joanna harris for their imaginations. michael ondaatje surprises me and delights me. all the classics, ranging from homer to dante, from casanova to austen, hardy to miller.. i can't get enough of it.

Heroes:

my family, the damn lot of them
