First Impressions

This week's competition, in which you have to identify a book from its opening sentence, is from a work that has nothing to do with GM foods: " You will rejoice to hear that no disaster has accompanied the commencement of an enterprise which you have regarded with such evil forebodings. "

The winner receives a £25 Blackwell's book voucher and
the closing date is March 14 .
