began early

    How to Shit Around the World

    Very funny but also rather useful.. some things I wish I knew before I travelled to Pakistan for the first time. And some things I now wish I didn’t know.

    Care not Cure: David's Escape

    I have read an early draft of this book and found it incredibly moving and beautiful

    A Glimpse of Eternal Snows

    I'm another Murdoch's author (Holding up the Sky). Diana, my editor, often slips me books to read in the Pier 9 line and I've just finished yours. I thoroughly enjoyed it and loved getting to know David. What a gift! It saddens me to hear that people in England wouldn't even acknowledge his existence. I'm so glad you changed the focus of the book and put him in the centre of it. I've enjoyed my daily bus rides into Sydney from the Northern Beaches, having you, David, Simon, Alexander and Sebastian for company.
