David Johannesen

After reading "Outlander" and "Dragonfly in Amber" and watching the TV series, I wonder if other readers have come to appreciate the struggle of Scots against English tyranny—culminating in the battle of Culloden in 1749? If you are fully are partially Scottish, as I am, do you yearn for Scotland's independence—even the prospect of forming its own EU with Norway?

David Johannesen Having just re-read Carson McCullers's "The Heart is a Lonely Hunter" I wonder who are your favorite women authors of the past 50 years? Do Isabele Allende, Louise Erdrich and Iris Murdoch top your list? Do you discover a unity of author, reader and character in their pages? Who are their natural antecedents? Virginia Wolfe or Katherine Mansfield?
