Reading

Currently reading: very near the end of John Davies’ A History Of Wales, which I’m reasonably sure I bought in the shop attached to one of Wales’s numerous C13th castles. The author evidently loves his subject but easily avoids romanticising it. Voluminous, detailed and comprehensive.

Currently reading: Peter Mandelson’s autobiography, The Third Man. Thus far most interesting for its insight into 1980s internal Labour thinking, a critical prologue to the Blair years. So far it seems more thoughtful and convincing than Blair’s bio, but it’s early days yet.

Recently finished: (FSVO finished, since there’s more to come) I have also been reading Chew. Tony Chu gets psychic impressions from anything he eats … including murder victims, which since he’s a cop form a substantial portion of the people he meets. Gruesome but hugely fun.
