altarielHurrah! An OBE for novelist and poet Peter Dickinson!
Over the past year or so, I've been working my way through his terrific crime novels (courtesy of![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
gerald) and his extraordinary children's books (with more than a little help from the_wild_iris). BookMooch recently supplied me with his trilogy for teenagers The Changes, which I remember distinctly seeing when it was adapted for television in the mid-Seventies. (According to this site, there may have been repeats 18 months later, but that still puts my age somewhere between 3 and 4-and-a-half, so you can assume it was distinctive and memorable.) I hope this prompts a DVD release.
