replies: text:  O.K. I have now completed the makeover of the William Boyd article which has taken a lot of time and effort but I believe this now presents a comprehensive profile of the author and his work.  Ivankinsman 07:34, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

I am looking forward to reading 'Waiting for Sunrise'. Sebastian Faulks has also written a novel with a similar pyschiatric theme. As much as I think 'Birdsong (novel)' is a brilliant novel, 'Human Traces' unfortuately is not as it goes into far too much turgid detail about psychiatric theory.

message: I have commenced a tidy-up of the Bibliography section using cite templates. Capitalization and punctuation follow standard cataloguing rules in AACR2 and RDA, as much as Wikipedia templates allow it. ISBNs and other persistent identifiers, where available, are commented out, but still available for reference. This is a work in progress; feel free to continue.
