The Dostoyevsky is on my reading list, glad you got the Carter, I got Rapture and spent a few quiet moments with it and Kate Bush : )
What's the Hughes kids stuff like?
I bought Rapture just before Christmas, it looks lovely so far.
I was spoilt for books.
Haven't read many of the kid's poems yet, but I am rather fond of a few that I grew up with. I bought mum a copy too, which is fortunate as she did fancy it for hersalf as she was wrapping it for me. She's a fan of his children's poems, but doesn't seem to have many of his books left (probably lost to various schools). The Briggs' illustrations are gorgeous.
