Orange Prize for Fiction's "50 Essential Reads by Contemporary Authors"

glad to see fingersmith there. many people i know and have described this book to, brush it off as a lesbian themed book, nothing more. i think they are VERY wrong. fingersmith is one of (acually THE) most beautifully written peice of literature i have ever read.
