Over the past two or three months I've enjoyed Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy, Garth Nix's Old Kingdom Trilogy, The Islamist by Ed Hussain, The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins. I'm currently reading Salman Rushdie's Satanic Verses. The fiction writer whose imagination has excited me most during the past year has to be Neil Gaiman. Neverwhere and The Ananci Boys are both quite brilliantly original.
A whole one, that is? Feels like ages ago. Was it in French, was it in English? Not quite sure. My baby gave me a boxed set of the Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy and I think it was the last one I opened... It's still waiting for me to finish it.Oh dear! He, on the other hand has been reading loads of new things. Ask him.
