I'm serious. I've read it in english and then, when I was back home (Roma) for few days, I've bought the italian translation (a good one, but you write so well that it is almost impossible to reproduce the sound and soul of your words even in a wonderful language such as mine). The only pity is... no dogs. When will you present the Three W of W in NYC? Your last book has to win the Pulitzer. I’m serious.

I like the idea of being read down under. There are so many Australian writers that I love. Peter Carey is my favorite, although I did just discover a kind of odd novelist named Elizabeth Jolley. Do you know her work? Thank you, Jon. I like the idea of being read down under. There are so many Australian writers that I love.

I finally got W of W today and spent the afternoon in delight and amazement on my sofa, savoring, enjoying. I've only reached p. 72 but I know you're the real thing--and I don't mean a Jane Austen imitation! Why are you not known in Australia?
