This week’s competition, in which you have to identify a book from its opening sentence, is from a work by an autodidact, polyglot and accomplished musician:

“You must and will suppose (fair or foul reader, but where’s the difference?) that I suppose a heap of happenings that I had no eye to eye knowledge of or concerning.”


* Entries, including postal address, should be sent to First Impressions, The Times Higher, Admiral House, 66-68 East Smithfield, London E1W 1BX, faxed to 020 7782 3300 or emailed to [EMAIL="theschat@thes.co.uk"]theschat@thes.co.uk[/EMAIL]

Thank you Soozy, it would be lovely to get an mse winner from this. Just wish they could be used in my local charity shop where books are 25p each or 5 for £1. That would be a lot of books
