Happy Birthday to Francis Crawford...

[fajrdrako]

Today is the birthday of my favourite fictional hero:



So many descriptions of Francis Crawford of Lymond - the chameleon, the nautilus in his shell, the drunken amateur who makes music and love comme une ange, the glittering and glamourous Lymond who has so many levels below his surface. His birth in the fertile brain of Dorothy Dunnett makes this a happy day.
