Listened to Ramsey reading his awesome Jamesian tale 'The Guide' during my lunch break today. A link to it can be found in the news section of the main site. One of my favourite Ramsey stories - what do others think of it? | ||

It's wonderful and includes one of my favourite Ramsey lines. I'm saying this out of a hole that is most of my face. | ||

Why not discuss the tale in the Reading Group section, Lincoln? This applies to anyone currently reading stuff by The Master. | ||

It was the second one I read after CALL FIRST. I really enjoyed it. I wasn't sure if this M.R. James chap was invented or not. | ||

I'm guessing but I think Ramsey is naming his next collection after a line from this tale - the one to which I allude above. | ||

Not "Oi - watch out for that thing over there"? | ||

Too subtle for a writer of Ramsey's clunky obviousness, Micky boy. | ||

Well, to be honest I did wonder. | ||

It's a great story and I love M.R. James stories as well. "Number 13", "The Ash Tree", "Oh Whistle and I'll Come to You, My Lad", "The Mezzotint", "A Warning to the Curious" all are brilliant. | ||
