I was sorry to hear of the passing of mighty Jane Gardam. I've loved her books. If you haven’t read the Old Filth trilogy, you’re in for rare a treat. Line to line never a false note, and she had such a wondrous, unflinching view of character. Rip, great writer.

To ask teenagers from 55 countries to write of secrets is to be let into worlds that are heartbreaking & heart-redeeming. These are dark times, but these writers aren’t afraid of the dark.They use it to make art that is tender and wise. I loved working with them.
