I loved "The Name of the Rose"! I'm a confirmed certified bibliophile, so stories about books really get me.

Did your parents have an opinion about whether Arthur Orton was Roger Tichborne?

I think they did have an opinion, but they are both gone now, and I was 13 years old at the time (42 years ago), so I can't remember what they thought. I do remember the story of the Tichborne curse, however, and also meeting Sir Anthony and his wife, who died in true Tichborne fashion, according to the prophecy.

Yeah, I've always been an avid reader, ever since I was a little kid, love books and like to keep 'em around, they make the house look warm and friendly. I save lots of recommendations from FR.
