The cop hero is well worth getting to know - set in Venice so stylish in location, urbane in persona, well written and with corruption lurking like something nasty in the woodshed. (Apologies for mixing Cold Comfort allusions with vaporetto fumes) Hadn't heard of Donna Leon, but we appear to be the minority. There are 98 holds for "Drawing Conclusions", her latest. I ordered the one with no holds, "Through a Glass Darkly". Do you have a favorite? I haven't read them all, but those I have read have all been good. I do have a soft spot though for 'Death at La Fenice': a Commissario Guido Brunetti mystery. Hmmm. Written 2004, and there are still 2 holds on it. Must be good. This usenet is pretty damn good. I got what I wanted, and it was even in the wrong group. because it's the first of the series, it was the first of hers I'd read, and it was just so refreshing to find a writer who can write well and who can tell a ripping yarn even when producing light fiction. I like Janet Evanovich, but although she tells a ripping yarn, her writing is poor (and her editors are obviously not up to their jobs - eg. she writes about 'couple things' when a 'couple of things' is what is meant). á bientôt -- - Billy Mad dog Republicans to the right. Democratic spider webs to the left. True conservatives, and liberals not to be found anywhere in the phantasmagoria of the American political landscape. America is not broke. The country is awash in wealth and cash. It's just that it's not in your hands. It has been transferred, in the greatest heist in history, from the workers and consumers to the banks and the portfolios of the uber-rich. http://www.politifact.com/wisconsin/.../michael-moore /michael-moore-says-400-americans-have-more-wealth-/ |
