Feminism: Sex and gender discussions

This reminds me that I need to pick up a copy of Douglas Hurd's 1971 spy novel Scotch on the Rocks, which foresees a Britain thrown into turmoil by the SNP gaining serious political power.

The BBC made a mini-series based on it in 1973, but it has never been repeated due it its outrageous suggestions that some people in the SNP might be a bit dodgy.

You know, over in Murica they had crime thriller novels with Obama and Biden as the James Bond style heroes. It's the sort of thing even Putin would find a bit cringe.

But if the Muricans can have a cult of personality around their leaders, why not the Scots?

I fear the biggest crime might be that committed against literature.

She's mates with Val McDermid & I'd guess Val has been encouraging Nic in her literary endeavours.
