There was a book shop but too expensive on my teensy teacher's salary. BUT the British Council had a library for teachers and that's where I found Dick Francis (and many other Brit writers--some higher brow, some mystery writers like Ian Rankin and Bill James). I read them all, some more than once. And even now a decade later, with my night table and book tables stacked with library books I just had to bring home, even now I still need a Dick Francis fix...almost always a bookworm's perfect day-in-bed-with-books day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
