Hello David, My better half is a Tom Sharp fan. He was once glared at by a lady on the train as the cover of his Sharp novel was so lurid I fear she thought it something truly execrable. I loved the televised version of "Blot on the Landscape" but have not actually read any. Take care, Elaine -----Original Message----- From: ebooktalk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ebooktalk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of David Russell Sent: Thursday, 6 June 2013 7:11 PM To: ebooktalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ebooktalk] Tom Sharp Hi Just heard that tom Sharp has died. I know he is an acquired taste, but I find his books hilarious. One or two were not quite up to the mark, but he rarely disappointed. Anyone else like his writing? David
