What I'm reading ...

I have started Family Planning by Tim Parks.

This is the first fiction book I have read by Tim Parks. He is an English guy with an Italian wife and lives in Italy. He used to appear quite often on the Home Truths radio program, talking about the oddities of life in Italy. I read a couple of books by him on the same topic. This one is about a family - an oldish couple and four grown-up children, one of whom has some mental difficulties and still lives with his parents. I have the impression that a key issue is what happens to him in the longer term.
