Two bits of news

First, let us rejoice that there is a new Fred Vargas book available in English, The Chalk Circle Man. I suppose we should be thankful for small mercies, but why on earth could they not have translated them in the right order? This is actually the first in the Adamsberg series.

Second, clcking here should take you to a working URL for my talk at the Sunday Times Literary Festival in Oxford on 1st April. It's principally about E.F. Benson, though onviously my own Mapp and Lucia book Major Benjy may get a passing mention ...
