"I think I ought to be shot for writing such nonsense, but it's questionably good escapist literature and I think I should rather like it if I were sitting in an air-raid shelter, or recovering from flu."

Where did you find this? I love it!
BTW
I taught high school and your book The Late Great Me is still loved and read by students. How cool is that?

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Aloha,
Pat

I love this too. I'm a Georgette Heyer fan and I came out of the closet about it a long time ago - she's a really good plotter and a fine researcher, people who are sniffy about historical romance could usually learn something from her attention to detail.

Glad to hear about the eye op - I would have wished you well but it seemed a bit counterproductive to expect you to read something when you were supposed to be resting your eyes!
