The Summer Without Men: A Novel by Siri Hustvedt. What a title!

I thought it was a book themed around summer??!!! That puts my second suggestion of 'A World Without Bees' firmly out of the picture as well then!

Steve - I see your copy is on RISI, I put in a request but I don't have many books on there right now. I won't be offended if there is nothing of interest to you.

[Chris]

thank you :-)

[Stephen]

yes its all packed and ready to go as its in its original packing which was from amazon marketplace was advertised as used-good but its fine apart from a few creases on front cover though but not bad for £2.74 inc p&p but it goes as large letter for postal services :)

[Chris]

Steve, received it today - huge thanks. Better get on and read it!

[Lindsey]

What I especially love about this book is that I have been reading it for only an hour having got it via a library reservation today and already I am 41% of way through. Its gripping too, not much happening but I am already in love with it - am glad I chose it! Makes me want to re-read the Moomins!
