Finished this, it was really excellent. She’s written a few other books so I’ll look them out.Unsettled Ground by Claire Fuller. Half way through, very good so far.
Ooh didn’t Boyd also write that Travellers In The Third Reich book?Am halfway through and really enjoying 'A Village in the Third Reich' by Julia Boyd & Angelika Patel. Great insight into how Nazism took a hold/ was resisted in a traditional Bavarian village.

We need to talk about Kevin by Lionel Shriver.
I knew the basic premise of what it was about, and have avoided watching the film.
What a fantastic book. It works well as an epistolary novel as everything develops from one point of view.
Highly recommended
Darkside by Belinda Bauer.
Crime in a small inward-looking Exmoor village.
I'm enjoying the parochial outlook. Complicated crimes are investigated by Dulverton police; really complicated ones by Tiverton, and for murder they get a copper down from Taunton, which must be all of 20 miles away.
And there's a bit of Devon dialect in it too. Right, bey?

Have just discovered this which I suspect is a much better read than dust. I gather VM is a very good writer but can't believe the book is so oldperhaps you should try ugo bardi's 'before the collapse: a guide to the other side of growth' Before the Collapse
