The most recent addition to the complete review is my review of Monique Lange's A Little Girl under a Mosquito Net.
Lange was, of course, Juan Goytisolo's wife; I recently reviewed his The Blind Rider, in which he deals with her death, and was also intrigued by James Kirkup's 1996 obituary, which led me to pick this up. Her books aren't easy to find (in English) any longer -- but back in the day (the early 1970s) this one was published in the US (as a Richard Seaver book at Viking) within a year of appearing in France; it also got a mention in The New York Times Book Review.
