I love Berger's books too and considered trying to write him a little fan letter. Don't know where I'd send it though, I'm writing from Canada. His publisher?

[taraghb]

Yes - I'm not sure how you would write but his publisher would be a good start I think. Thanks for watching

Lovely video, it was like I was having coffee with friends, I wanted to jump right into the conversation. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Kate. It was great that I just ran the camera for a couple of minutes before and then this lovely conversation happened.

My favorite Berger would have to be the second volume of the "Into Their Labours" trilogy, the short story collection, Once in Europa. Highly recommended.

[taraghb]

Thanks for the comments and recommendation.

[antelope65]

Thanks again for sharing this

[taraghb]

Thank you so much for the interesting comments Mr Antelope. Credit goes to Jess and Pip for sharing their thoughts.

It's great that you're bringing attention to Berger's wonderful -- and powerfully relevant -- essay collection. As far as I can tell, it was almost completely ignored by the newspapers when it was published last year. People are embarrassed by his radicalism; either that, or it's a form of covert censorship.

I'm looking forward to reading his latest novel, From A to Z.

Candid cafe is great - we had a wonderful vegtable curry - huge plate each. I was so pleased I had the camera on just before Jesse told her story. T x
