Tender Hooks
Jan. 25th, 2012 12:06 pmThis morning cousin has been on tender hooks thinking about the outcome of Fran's hospital appointment today to see if she got the all clear from the cancer treatment. Fran is one of Spot's best friends , and she twigged that cousin was going out with Karen before anybody else did in the village.
Last night I listened to a couple of folk/psych music from Columbia and funky jazz fusion from France, specifically Genesis and Cortex. I did not watch the football game on TV as I guessed correctly it would be a draw and that it would end up with penalties. Cardiff won on the penalties.
Anyway , fingers crossed that her results are good.

Book 4 - David Mitchell - Ghostwritten
Jan. 25th, 2012 09:20 pmAnother book finished an hour ago from the fifty book challenge and,strangely, the second one by David Mitchell, although he wrote this before Cloud Atlas. There is a very Asian feel to this novel.
For example, what do a Japanese cultist; a teenager working in a Japanese jazz music shop; a financier in Hong Kong; the owner of a Chinese tea shop; a backpacking Dane; a Russian art gallery attendant; a British ghost-writer/musician; an Irish physicist and an American radio presenter have in common? More than you might think as Mitchell weaves their lives and connections into this novel in nine parts.
This could be seen as a set of interconnected short stories but in Mitchell's hands the sum is more than the parts. History, contemporary, mystery, futuristic - this book contains many genres but as a whole it flows and the connections come together to make this is into an amazing début novel. A very enjoyable read.
