Hi Suzy…Reading more about the book and your blog makes me want to send you a photo of my rebuilt single speed bike with the blue tires and lime green chair and grips…will do soon..
Hi Annie, please do – I’d really like to see it!
bookgeekchic, I saw that you became a follower of my blog on
Wordpress, but that is only a “dummy” blog as I left WP two years ago. My actual blog is Dolce Bellezza which you can find by clicking on the link. In case you’re interested in following the real deal.
Thanks!
Great, now the link didn’t come through. It’s . Sorry for the confusion!
Hi there,
Got it. Thanks again for the review. It’s my first one so means a lot.
Hi Suzanne, i currently do a book review show on 101.4 ONFM London and Shoreditch Radio, but i am going to pilot a small web TV show in July and am very interested in promoting talented authors on the show. Would you be interested in talking about your book “A Lady Cyclist’s Guide To Kashgar”? Please reply over wordpress if you are interested.
All the best
Simone
Hi Suzanne
I chose your book for our book group ( Darien, Connecticut) which is tomorrow night. I confess that I chose it mainly for its cover which is fabulous, and also because I lived in Hong Kong for two years and am very interested in such intersections of cultures.
I would love to hear your answers to some questions…if that isn’t too presumptive!
1. What made you write about missionaries?
2. Is there some family connection with Kashgar, missionaries or bicycles?
3. How do you choose your characters names?
4. Birds are used symbolically throughout your book and also I see the connection on your blog…..why?
Finally I would like to say that what I got most from your book was the circular nature of life and how things appear in different generations that may have roots in others. Many thanks for a great read.
