What I'm reading ...

I have started Pompeii by Robert Harris.

I first read a one of Robert Harris' books - Fatherland - as a result of listening to one of the early BBC Radio 4 Bookclub programmes. I have then read each of the others and enjoyed them all. In particular, I like his journalistic approach and attention to detail and accuracy.

I was keen to read this book, when it came out, but I was waiting for the paperback. I happened to mention this to a friend, who said they would lend me their copy. Next time I visited, there it was waiting for me [nice of them to remember!].
