By an odd coincidence I was recently given Aunt Sunday Sees It Though by one J.J.Farjeon. Any relation?
(Ah. Turns out he's her brother.)
Oh and envy you the crispins.
Eleanor's certainly worth a try. I think a few of hers are available on Project Gutenberg. Are you a Gutenberg person?
I envy myself the Crispins. The short stories are not so easy to find. But the most delightful of the whole lot of loot is the de la Mare.
I should check it out. I download stuff and then never read it. So many Sabatinis on my comp all neglected.
And never been a de la Mare person for some reason. Am I missing something good?
He's done a variety of stuff - "Memoirs of a Midget", "Three Royal Monkeys", "Desert Islands" etc. You're sure to find something you like.
