The author Philip Kerr has died, aged 62. Bernie's recent outing, the 13th, was published about a week ago.

I've loved almost everything he wrote. It was always interesting. If you see a copy (OOP) of A Philosophical Investigation in a charity shop, buy it. The year it is set in has come (and gone) so it's fun to see what we all thought the future looked like from 1992-ish.

There is one just out and another in the pipeline for next year, all ready to go.... so his books live on after his death. I love that he said of Berlin that it was not so much a city as a 'state of mind'
