Ghost Variations came back from the Unbound editor the other day 14,000 words shorter. Getting my head around the remaining 84,000 is likely to take a little time, so I may be going to earth for a bit, though looking forward to coming up for air chez Wigmore Hall tomorrow, where András Schiff reaches the last of his "last works" series (the final piano sonatas of Haydn, Mozart, Schubert and Beethoven, performed with no interval).
