Excellent! (re copies of your book at Amazon). Thank you for the kind compliments on Belletrista. It's hard work and some of it is like herding cats, but I like to think of it as worth the effort. Best, Lois
Loved your reviews of Hemon's books. I'm going to read Love and Obstacles as soon as I can. Good point about comparisons being made on the basis of ethnic/national origin rather than literary considerations!
