I have a lot to thank Sally for. During the time that she was a teacher and director of studies at Camden College of English she became the best and closest friend that anybody could wish for. Now that she is living in India I miss our daily chats...
One thing we talked a lot about was our shared passion for reading. We both agreed that too many recent books are about emotional breakdowns, failed relationships, mid-life crises...where are the great story tellers? we both asked.
Well, Sally, thanks for giving me a copy of "A Fine Balance" by Rohinton Mistry. It is the best book I've read in years. The four main characters are so real that they are still growing and living in my mind. If you want to go on a wonderful journey this summer then get this book... and if you don't trust me, trust Sally!

Wish her the best luck in the world!!
