(3.5 / 5) The mystery in the second Strachey book is more solid, but I'm still feeling distanced from the characters. Would love to know more backstory. Also note, this ebook edition is just as badly formatted as the first. I don't know what MLR are do...more |

“...this woman, moved by some private sorrow as much as the words being spoken, cried almost silently, unobserved by others, apart from Mma Ramotswe, who stretched out her hand and laid it on her shoulder. Do not cry, Mma, she began to whisper, but changed her words even as she uttered them, and said quietly, Yes, you can cry, Mma. We should not tell people not to weep - we do it because of our sympathy for them - but we should really tell them that their tears are justified and entirely right.”

Hi, Susan! So glad you liked the book. My other novels are a bit different to TaD, but most people seem to like Dash and Dingo the best after it.
I finished Tigers and Devils yesterday and spent all day at work today lurking at www.afl.com. Now I want to go to Australia to watch a game.So do tell, which of your books would you suggest next?
Hey Sean, Thanks so much for the invite! I finished reading Tigers and Devils this morning and I loved it! Massive Coincidence! hahaha
Thank you for accepting that, I was wondering if you ever plan to write more with the characters from tiger and devil?
Thanks for the request- had to laugh, just before i saw it i was reading an interview w/you from a year or so back courtesy of a random stumbleupon click... -a.

Yeah, I'll accept friending as a word, too.
North of the river :-)
I'm pretty sure if Twitter is a recognised word now, so must be friending!Fuck I miss Melbourne. Unfortunately I moved back to Perth to be with family after getting sick but spent eight glorious years there. It must be in the blood though, because I was born there. Long family story!
Are you north or south of the river?
