Jane Wallman-Girdlestone

Nothing could have prepared me for hearing actor Charlie Simpson reading an extract of SLEIGHT OF HAND for the View From Here exhibition which is being opened this Friday in Edinburgh.

I heard the piece for the first time this afternoon and burst into tears of joy.  He is a very gifted actor but his nuanced performance is second to none.  I don’t see the book as my work now, it is growing a life of its own.

My gratitude and appreciation to Charlie and his producer Ali.
