Dear Bernard,

I write these few lines just to thank you for the happy hours you gave me with your novels, I own almost all.

I could cite entire passages by heart but probably the same Italian edition titles that I read could tell you very little. Of course, read your historical fiction is above all a cultural enrichment, as well as a mere pastime. The same commitment I put in my novels that I publish occasionally, just for passion, and always keeping your masterpieces like my guiding star.

Unfortunately, in Italy your novels translated arrive “with the dropper”, a real shame.

Perhaps it is time to learn to read in English…

Thanks for your novels and your historical erudition.

Sincerely.

Andrea Castagna
