Not perfect, but often interesting.

The Carr is a very nice little book.

Can't agree about Times New Roman, though!

This is just spooky. I read Orbital last week. I heard Irvine Welsh recommend Brian this week. And I’m taking my daughter to see Othello next week. Thank you for all the links about the play. I’m sure they’ll help both of us get more out it.

I found 'Brian' affecting and beautifully-achieved. Most of my links for 'Othello' there are for classroom study, so maybe not for your daughter in terms of seeing a performance! There's so much that's interesting, problematic and knotty about the play.
