Thanks Snafu for the info about Geraldine Brooks' book. I'm going to see if I can get it out of the library. These ABC Wednesday posts take me an age to do and I don't dare think about another 20 weeks to come. Get over your cold soon.

Happily married, retired. The name SNAFU was accidental, I got cross with Blogger because my name is so commonplace any variation I could think of was already in use. Computer systems do not do sarcasm and so it accepted my comment as my user name. I am not hiding my identity, my name is Pete Morris. Lifelong geek and technophile. Bookshelves in nearly every room of the house, from Blyton to Einstein. Spent most of my working life training adults in geeky stuff, from basic electrics to computer systems. My heroes are, amongst others, Richard Feynman, Freeman Dyson and Eric Laithwaite and if you don’t need to look them up in Wikipedia then you are my kind of geek. .
Been missing you, snafu. Hope you are feeling better soon!
