Thanks for your recent comment regarding 'Horse Latitudes' in the Amazon UK fiction forum "Why hasn't somebody made the movie??"
Unless the book in question is plot-driven, genre fiction (ala Tom Clancy), gotta stand by the old adage "Great books make bad movies." Great books are the product of great writing. It's all about words. Films are a visual medium. One doesn't readily translate into the other (or with the same effect). I've always felt novelists are closer to musicians or composers than screen writers. Tho I wouldn't mind some Hollywood producer writing me a fat check for the movie rights.
By the way, hope you have a very happy birthday!
Quinn

I've just received my copy of A Time to Tell and look forward to it--though my mother will probably read it first. She is staying with me to recover from hip surgery and is enjoying my home library.
Again, many thanks!
