      That’s true (but you have painted a rather bleak view of holidays in general!) Books can also take you to places that a holiday could never reach: 12th century France, inside the head of a horse, into another world reached via a wardrobe…

    Like the quote but shouldn’t this be ascribed to Anna Quindlen?
