Oh, wait. I guess I'm not quite done pulling quotes off the Internet for the day. This one is from an review by Simon Callow on a Tom Phillips book called The Postcard Century:
The story of Max Church, for example, author of a series of postcards during and after the Second World War, culminates in what Phillips rightly calls "a message that could be expanded into a novel": "Dear Dad. When you write next time could you include Pierre Braun's name, it will make him feel that my parents have accepted him as he has accepted me."
