caddymanI am in the book gap.
I have finished reading The Camus Club by Arturo Perez Reverte, which is a well-written, intricate and absorbing Shaggy Dog Story as it turns out. Recommended.
I now have to decide what to delve into next. I’m not short of choices; there are numerous historical books awaiting my attention, but I think I fancy more fiction for a while. Penguin recently published (and I acquired) beautiful new paperback editions of The Fall, The Outsider and The Plague by Albert Camus. The first two are very short, so I might reacquaint myself with those before moving on to something else. On Kindle, I have the complete Bulldog Drummond, but I have paper copies of the Hannay books to read, too.
Oh, and lots and lots of history books, as I said above. The biography of Albert Ball VC calls to me, as does Venice's Secret Service: Organizing Intelligence in the Renaissance by Ioanna Iordanou, though I’m not sure where we’ve filed that, for the time being…
