August 2002

For all those who need even more help sorting out my novels, it is on its way !
In September comes the volume about me in the VINTAGE LIVING TEXTS series, by Margaret Reynolds - English Literature Reader at Queen Mary College, University of London, and Jonathan Noakes, English master at Eton College ( where the manuscripts of most of my books are held.)

This book will, I think, be really helpful to students at all levels. It contains a long interview with me, text notes and background, analyses etc mainly on I`M THE KING OF THE CASTLE, STRANGE MEETING and THE WOMAN IN BLACK, though others are mentioned in lesser detail and depth. Alas, too late for those of you taking GCSE and AS and A levels this year - sorry.
There will be full details of it on the site later and you will be able to purchase copies direct from me at a modest discount, by sending cheques/PO.

2. For those interested in the play of THE WOMAN IN BLACK, there have been a number of visits by newspaper theatre critics to the London production lately.. they are re-doing long-runners. The Daily Telegraph, HELLO magazine and THE TIMES, all gave it raves, You can read the DT and THE TIMES reviews on their on-line sites.. or you could last time I checked.
