i was recently given
"never let me go" by kazuo ishiguro, which i thought was very interesting.

also, although i am neither a lesbian nor a victorian, i LOVE sarah waters' books - "tipping the velvet" is brilliant, as are all her others.

it was, however, unfortunate in the extreme that i bought a copy of "tipping the velvet" for a male friend at christmas and autographed it to say "because i know what a rancid little pervert you are". then thought, "aha, my sister-in-law might like this too," and bought a second copy.

you can guess what happened on christmas day. i was deeply unpopular there. although my brother found it hilarious.
