London, Burning (Anthony Quinn)

Anthony Quinn
London, Burning



Another very readable story set in late 70s London against the backdrop of industrial unrest, leadup to Thatcher's election and punk so a lot of cultural references that were right up my street. Follows 4 people who's lives interconnect related to crime, terrorism, relationships and power. A good read.

The Gardener (Salley Vickers)

The Gardener


A very readable story about change and moving into a new life and relationships against the backdrop of nature and plants. Very gentle and just the thing to read whilst whiling away a time in Venice.
