IN LATE 2006, Judith O’Reilly started a blog called www.wifeinthenorth.com to vent her frustration after reluctantly moving to Northumberland from London. Northumberland is not exactly for the faint-hearted. Her blog charts her adventures and misadventures raising her family in the north. Surprise of surprises, her blog will soon be published as a book by Viking Penguin. Congratulations on the book deal, Judith!

I am a senior book and magazine editor who lives in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I love books and the freedom to read whatever makes me happy: both fiction and nonfiction. I have always been obsessed with the relationship between literature and life and its role in society. As an editor, I have edited many books, but never get tired of the grand adventure of reading. We must never underestimate the redeeming power of fiction in our lives. The idea that there is something out there that is far, far bigger than our lives sustains some of our lives. I am the co-editor of URBAN ODYSSEYS: KL STORIES.
