This week I've 'been' on the Matterhorn with a group of adventurous Edwardian ladies in Susanna Jones' excellent and chilling When Nights Were Cold (of which more soon), and then I went to Cornwall in the 1990s via a re-read of Tim Smit's The Lost Gardens Of Heligan,
his beautifully enthusiastic and succinct account of the discovery and restoration of the gardens of this now world famous Cornish estate. Now I'm off to 1660s Oxford to make a start on our February book group book, Iain Pears' An Instance Of The Fingerpost
.
Where's your reading taking you?
