"Jack Rosenblum switched off the wireless and nestled back into his leather armchair. A beatific smile spread across his face and he closed his eyes. "So there is to be more rain," he remarked to the empty room, stretching out his short legs and giving a yawn. He was unconcerned by the dismal prognosis; it was the act of listening to the bulletin that he savored. Each evening during the weather forecast he could imagine he was an Englishman." ...Mr. Rosenblum Dreams in English by Natasha Solomons

I'm a follower. I would love to win all of those books. I've read It Happened One Night. It's wonderful.
Love the first lines. Draws you into the book and it does sound intriguing.

Just finished reading Mr. Rosenblum. It was a delightful change of pace type book. Something different. Hope you like it as much as I did.
