Tina Dico
DANISH CHANTEUSE
“I’ve been plunged into The Golden Bowl by Henry James, a novel I’d never managed before. There are only six characters; nothing — and everything — happens. I’m stunned by its brilliance and emotional intensity: required reading for all adulterers. Just as good has been Richard Hughes’s neglected A High Wind in Jamaica.”
Stella Tillyard
A ROYAL READER
“I usually have a novel and a nonfiction book going at once. At the moment it’s Haruki Murakami’s Sputnik Sweetheart and Peter J. King’s One Hundred Philosophers. I’m finally about to start Bob Dylan’s Chronicles. He’s always been an inspiration and hopefully the book will say lots about the thoughts behind his lyrics’ obscurity.”
