The link below will take you to a quite beautiful review of a travel memoir. The memoir happens to be mine, but the review is a work of art and worth reading for its own sake. It's an object lesson in how to write a review, in fact.

Lovely review indeed. And I discovered a new word 'skite'!

Thanks Piers - yes, 'skite' is slang for 'brag', 'boast' etc. Not sure of the origin :-)
