Yes, I have you to thank for the Noel Streatfield and Pele for the Rumer
Godden idea.
Thank you both.
Elaine

Elaine, I'm inclined to agree with you about spy stories. I recently read a
Rumer Godden too, an Episode of Sparrows, which I enjoyed but perhaps not
quite as much as the Diddakoi and certainly not as much as Thursday's
Children. I have Pele to thank for pointing me in the direction of these. I
have also just finished another book she encouraged me to read, Rudyard
Kipling's Kim. I couldn't begin to outline the plot, but I thoroughly
enjoyed being swept through it. The reader, whose name I don't know, was
wonderful. What an easy style Kipling has, unlike so many of his era.
I have read the Language of Others, and two other Morralls. You would think
this would appeal to me most, being about music, but by far my favourite was
Natural Flights of the Human Mind. Has anyone else read it? I think I made
Voldi, and he didn't much like it. Clare
