Could be, but it was so close to how I feel on a beach, with a book, that I coudn't resist it!!!
Started today L'ultimo traghetto, a thriller by Domingo Villar.It seems really good, maybe because it starts with the description of a woman - the victim I'm afraid - who looks exactly like me!!!

I don't particularly like Hemingway; I'll see if I'll be captured by this one!
