I agree with your take on the Booker. It's what it is. You really have to read through the longlist, and, maybe, it's an honor just to be nominated? (Still, the Americans got it right with James, with all due respect to our anglo-irish friends. Also, Bee Sting shoulda won.)
@@bc-mv5se Yeah, exactly! To be one of 13 books selected for that level of attention must be amazing, and it’s made the careers of some authors! Yes! Glad that James got some love and attention anyway! (Bee Sting would have been my choice too!)
Congratulations Bob! 🎉
Thanks!
Oh my goodness, thank you so much! That’s so generous of you! ❤️

Ps sometimes you're on a 40 plus inch TV. Just something to think about....
