kittiwakeWhen exactly did I give myself over to sleep? When did I stop resisting . . . ? I used to be so lively, I was always wide awake - but when was that? So long ago it felt like ancient times.
* Night and Night's Travellers
* Long Songs
* Asleep
A short book whose 177 pages contain three stories about women who have problems with love, death and sleep. I'm not sure which of the first two I liked best, but the third was definitely my least favourite.
I have read a book of short stories by this author before, but six months later I realised that I couldn't remember a single thing about any of the stories in "Lizard" even though I had given it eight stars in my BookCrossing review, and although I enjoyed these three stories, I'm not sure I will find them any more memorable in the long run.
