I thought the Christmas period was supposed to be a quiet time. Harold Pinter, famous for The Caretaker, and Eartha Kitt, who wrote several books, made their exits and the author of Angel at the Fence admitted his piece of non-fiction was actually fiction.
Another sad loss was Dale Wasserman, who wrote Man of La Mancha. Mystery writer Hillary Waugh also died.
