Hello everybody - Bel-ami from the south of England. Never find enough time to get through my reading wish-list. Like most genres, but to pigeon-hole, it has to be Classics, Historical, Thrillers and Mysteries/Crime.

 

Looking forward to participating in the BCF :D

Hey there, Bel-Ami! Glad you joined us :D. I really want to say I love your avatar too - it reminds me of Sargent. Very nice indeed :irked:.

Hi peacefield - it does look like a Sargent portrait the way the subject is just staring out of the canvas against a dark background doesn't it? I have to confess I don't know the painting, it's on the latest Penguin Classics version of Bel-ami - a copy which I don't own. When I next pass a bookshop I'll try and find out!

 

......and thanks everyone.......it's great here!
