Book Review: Childhood by Tove Ditlevsen
A brutal, vulnerable, intensely personal and yet universal story of a little girl growing up between the world wars in Denmark. Almost a century after it was written, Ditlevsen’s story of her childhood in a poor suburb of Copenhagen is still fresh, timeless and revealing. Her childhood self is a compelling blend of raw honesty, naive tenderness and fragile curiosity.

Book Review – South of the Border, West of the Sun by Haruki Murakami
Big in scope, the story weaves through the life of Hajime, from being a young teenager to being a successful middle-class man, owner of several high-end bars in Tokyo. Hajime recalls with relish, (and we relive) his obsessive romantic fantasies. I will leave it there in terms of the plot to avoid any spoilers.
Book Review: SPQR by Mary Beard
I really wanted to love this book because I am a huge Mary Beard fan and I love her enthusiastic, passionate and fascinating documentaries about the Romans. As a novice to this topic, I was really craving a book that would educate me and also sustain my interest.
