Do you always want the happy ending?
20 March, 2012
Recently I read this article on The Guardian website, which made me actually want to post an argumentative comment underneath it (don’t worry, I didn’t – I know it would only be a downward spiral from there). In her blog post entitled ‘Sob stories: classic books I’m too cowardly to finish’, Imogen Russell Williams claims […]

More favourite literary gifts…
13 March, 2012

India keeps inspiring us…
5 March, 2012
This week sees the release of new film Trishna, an adaptation of Thomas Hardy’s Tess of the D’Urbervilles set in India.

Happy St David’s Day
1 March, 2012
It’s St David’s Day, and as I hail from Carmarthen, a little town in South West Wales, I feel it’s my duty to inject some Welshness into my blog post this week. For anyone who doesn’t know, St David’s Day (or Dydd Gwyl Dewi, as the Welsh would say) celebrates the life of Saint David, […]

The term Camden appeared to […]

Top 5 Literary Love Stories
14 February, 2012

Valentine’s Day does, however, give me the excuse for a good […]
