Did a reading of City in Singapore. Some 20+ souls turned up in the book lovers store, "Books Actually". Took a decision not to stuff the room with friends but just see who is out there who may have read City already. Think it was the right thing to do.
In the nature of these things, though the crowd was self-selecting. If they didn't like the book, they would not have come.
I read the opening part in the first chapter up to the point when Bryan describes Anna asleep. Then I dipped into the middle of the book where their son Peter takes up one of the stories his mother told him.
It wasnt so painful for me, and no one walked out during the reading.
That much I can say

Reading
A reading will be held on 20 Feb in Singapore, at the book store, Books Actually. Not sure what I should read, really. Have read poems (not well), Parliamentary and GOH speeches (what can you say). Never a part of a novel.
