I had T.D. for Christmas. Once I started reading it I could not put it aside-It is a tour de force-So Good!It is so important to try to understand relationships between the sexes-to 'burka' or to 'flaunt' is that the question? What does it mean-men should 'deal with it'?Why don't we understand the power of lust?
I loved the realistic animal life- I also know about the easily excitable Belted Galloways- and the demanding way of goats on heat- And the youngsters at the bus stop- excellent.. Beth was a real heroine the way she thought things through-well done Posy Simmonds
