I can remember when she got the Nobel prize. Haven´t heard anything from her in a while. Hope she´s still writing. Have a good day dear Claudia, it´s raining here in Austria. Very good for the grass and my roses :)
I should read the book. I was not a fan of the movie. The Piano and The English Patient...not my cup of tea. I know I was in the minority...
haven't read her work, but this spurs me to do so. Consider her added to my list of "to be read". Thanks!
The Piano was one of those films I meant to see but never did. You have reminded me about it.

Another interesting woman writer to learn about. I haven't seen the movie or read the book but I'd like to.
Elfriede looked like a tough lady with that cigarette hanging out of her mouth. Not a shrinking violet, I can tell.

What a great iconic black and white photo. I loved that film, The Piano. Good choice today.
She looks like the type who would be frank yet powerful.

She certainly appears to be a force to be reckoned with. If her writing is as strong as she appears to be, it sounds worth a read.
Great 'J' word and author.
