Ms Lafferty I now know, thanks to you, why the Satanic Verses earned Salman Rushdie the fatwa - he dared to speak about patriarchy in Islam. One mustn't ever challenge the impotence, sorry, importance of the penis in history. Esma Sultan, your creation, is one of the great Wise Women of fiction. More, more, more please! ? (oh, have to have a question mark? Can't just say an admiring 'thank you'?

I'm just finding these remarks! THANK YOU, Geoffrey!
Best, Linda
