ADAM & EVE - Jeffrey Archer writes to his readers

 "After fifty years of story telling, I have decided the time has come to write my final novel.

Adam & Eve has now proved to be my most satisfying writing endeavour and I can only hope you will feel the same way.

Please allow me end by thanking all my readers from around the world in 119 countries.

It has allowed this simple story teller the privilege of spending so many hours in your company.

I should have been Prime Minister, Captain of the England Cricket team or won an Olympic Gold for the Hundred metres, but then we can all dream.

As Marcel Proust reminded us:

'We always end up doing the thing we're second best at'

I can only hope that you've discovered what you're second best at.

Farewell and thank you

Jeffrey Archer"
