I came across a lovely comment by Philip Pullman about Kolymsky Heights by Lionel Davidson, namely
"The best thriller I've ever read." On the strength of that I read it myself and wasn't disappointed, an excellent piece of work, thoroughly enjoyed it. The story tore along at a fair old pace. On the back of that I dipped further into Lionel Davidson's works and have read A long way to Shiloh, The Rose of Tibet and latterly The Sun Chemist and from that book I came across a Yiddish proverb that has given me plenty of cause for thought.
-Gott shickt die refuah far der makke - God sends the remedy before the affliction.
