Exciting developments here at Lizzy’s bit ….
You may remember that I was enchanted by Mari Strachan’s The Earth Hums in B Flat. The novel has since made its way onto Amazon’s rising voices list. One to watch, obviously. Mari has now agreed to a blog interview – one with a difference. This time you get to ask the questions!
Of course, I want you to read the book first. So Canongate have kindly agreed to giveaway 3 copies to UK readers. Names in comments please with 3 names to be randomly selected next Tuesday 14.04.09.
We’ll collect your questions to Mari in a separate post, which she will answer on Wednesday 6.5.2009 – giving you plenty of time to read the book and submit your questions. And for a couple of hours on that day, Mari will be available live to answer any followup questions, enjoy spontaneous blog conversation etc.
More information will be forthcoming as I have it (i.e as I work out how to do this with blog technology.) In the meantime, put your names in the proverbial comments hat for your chance at a copy of one of Lizzy’s favourite reads of 2009.
Oh this is one book that I am really desperate to read so do please put me in for this drawer. I think all the reviews that I have seen of it have been really really positive!
I’ve read yours and dovegreyreaders reviews, would love to read this book. So please put my name in the draw. And looking forward to Mari’s blog interview
I am already intrigued by this book – please put my name into the hat!
Oh why not? It sounds like a good read to me. Thanks for the opportunity
Please add me to the list. I heard a couple of extracts on Radio Four and want to read the book.
This sounds like a good book. Would like to read this one. Please put me into the draw.
