Oscar and Lucinda by Peter Carey
Also an excellent film starring Cate Blancett and Ralph Fiennes, directed by Gillian Armstrong .
I think Carey won the Booker Prize for O&L in 1988. :p
G'Day Holger,
You're right - who hasn't read Astrid Lindgren? I have only read her Pippi Longstocking books but you probably know her others also. I remember wearing odd coloured socks as a child and growing my hair in two long plaits!
I had no idea tht she had passed away - very remiss of me...
There are so many books I'd love to see made into films. A full version of Wuthering Heights - one that doesn't end half way through the book, for starters. Was Greystoke a decent Tarzan? Was it true to the book? I love watching old black and white films - they come on the ABC (similar to BBC)...
;) Hi my name is Janie and I am a new member who enjoys reading all types of materials - especially biographies. I live in Australia - it is quite hot here right now- more like summer than autumn. I look forward to chatting with you all.
Bye, Janie
