talking books

or how a conversation about PG Wodehouse can wind up somewhere unexpected...

i believe my first exposure was a Jeeves book swiped from the shelf of
a holiday cottage; i must've been quite young since i remember being
scared by the cover of The Ka of Gifford Hilary!

weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! poor bookies I sympatise them so much!

btw all the covers i described are true - very odd the 1970s!

:lol: I can understand, though - I pick up a lot of second hand books & the weird Christie covers (and the 1980s Ngaio Marsh) ones...

Love your fictional conversation, though. Lurid old pbks lurking in the cellar!

ha-ha, thought you might understand! :))

I love it! And can you imagine the snobbery from the elder books toward these upstart self-published numbers?

"*haughty sniff* At least a professional created our cover art ..."
