I am very happy to get the latest issue of my favourite literary magazine - still, apparently, going strong.
No. 40 is reviewing:
Ego: the autobiography of James Agate
The Oaken Heart by Margery Allingham
Word from Wormingford, The Circling Year, A Year at Bottengoms Farm, The Bookman's Tale and Village Hours by Ronald Blythe
Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte
The Honeywood File and The Honeywood Settlement by H B Cresswell
Just William, More William and William Again by Richmal Crompton
A Winter Book by Tove Jansson
Oddly enough, Even oddlier, Oddly bodlikins, Next to oddliness, I said oddly, diddle I?, The Jenguin Pennings and Golden Oddlies by Paul Jennings
John Keats: Selected Letters - edited by John Mee and Robert Gittings
The Man Without Qualities by Robert Musil
Master and Commander (and the rest of the series) by Patrick O'Brian
Burmese Days by George Orwell
Tom's Midnight Garden by Phillipa Pearce
Period Piece by Gwen Raverat
The only work not held on LT is Village Hours by Ronald Blythe - there are 30 or less copies of his other books. Apart from Paul Jenning's Penguin book, he fails to make double figures here. Pity - I have always enjoyed his work but you probably need to be a middle-class Englishman of a certain age to appreciate his humour. Not too many of the Agate, Allingham and Cresswell books but the rest are well represented.
I don't know anything about either of the works by non-British authors - both are quite popular on LT so I'll look out for them.
