Hi Jana,

I have not! But I'm interested in this genre, the sort of thinking person's travelogue? I'll order a copy! The Pigeon Tunnel, by John le Carre'

Hey Gerben,

Happy New Year! Yes, I read most of them, though as I mention in the post, I've read some of them in sections relevant to writing. I didn't code in 2023, so I was unusually free to read and write!

Have you ever read John le Carres autobiographical The Pigeon Tunnel? It is a collection of various stories from various places over different decades - where he was doing research for his books, with memories of his childhood and his last secret. A persuasive testimony of his attempts to make sense of seemingly nonsensical things.

You read all of these in 2023? And you were writing at the same time? Wow.
