Talk:Tamar (novel)

Regional celebration (Merseyside)
Is there some Merseyside connection? We should say so, if true.

The former section "Publication history and awards" was very short with little enough publ hist that I have incorporated it in the lead (so little that it belongs there). The Carnegie Medal is also explained in the lead. No other generally notable awards were mentioned. Given the nature of what remains, which I have reworded without new content, I have renamed that section "Regional celebration". Wirral may be and Liverpool seems to be a local program that used this novel, not even a local award. Anyway they are local, not generally notable.

Mal Peet was born in Norfolk, college-educated in West Midlands, and lives in Devon --all according to our biography. There seems to be no Merseyside on the author's side. What about the story? If I understand correctly, the frame story begins in London but its primary setting is River Tamar, the border of Devon. (I wonder how and why the missing father is there, or what I have misunderstood.) --P64 (talk) 19:07, 29 July 2012 (UTC)
