No, Didn't even know Eva's mother wrote; how fascinating. Do you have that
on file?
I loved The Morning Gift, too, and last year read Madensky Square which is
different but equally evocative. Her children's books, "Which Witch?" and (I
think it's Eva) "The secret of Platform thirteen", (another one, June!), are
terrific. Trish and I read "Platform Thirteen" when I took up house-room
some years ago and gloried in it.

Elaine, thanks for the recommendation of Song of Summer, which I have and
will hurry up the pile. The Morning Gift was among my top books several
years ago, can supply if you don't have it. Perhaps you have read Manja by
her mother, Anna Gmeyner, republished a few years ago by Persephone. A much
darker book than the MG, but again, if anybody wants it ... It concerns five
Polish children in the run-up to the second World War. Perhaps a few
similarities to Ben Elton's Two Brothers, which we read together earlier
this year. Clare
