Yvette says the book is hard to find. My copy is an old Fontana paperback with a typically seventies cover (i.e. it has little to do with the book). There must be a lot out there; perhaps they're being hoarded?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020849054403226268.post-9371189630263492952014-07-03T07:46:34.918+10:002014-07-03T07:46:34.918+10:00Yes, the house & the lifestyle is such a fanta...Yes, the house & the lifestyle is such a fantasy, isn't it?

I read this a couple of weeks ago and oh my goodness I fell in love with that house and in another way, with the sort of life the two leading characters would live in it. Sigh. I've put off reading BEL LAMINGTON though I intend to read it at some point but not just yet. <br /><br />FLETCHER'S END is particularly hard to find even in paperback (forget the hard cover) which is what I want to own so I can hold it in my hands. But I suppose I could be satisfied with taking the hardcover out from the library every few months. :)<br /><br />Such a wonderful book. And thanks for such an enjoyable review.Yvettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08919246184376538331noreply@blogger.com
