Then you can't be reading Neil Gaiman's blog carefully enough! It's something he recommended a couple of months ago. Written in the 17th Century by a Polish writer called Jan Potocki (translated into English, that goes without saying!). It's stories within stories (met a man who told me his story and he met a man who told his story etc etc). A bit confusing when your memory's going like mine is.....but I got there in the end. I'm reading a Diana Wynn Jones book now, really for kids, which is a nice change. I'm all for variety. Alison
