Edna O'Brien has you curious with the first line of Mrs Reinhardt..

And today's line is:

                                  Four thirty in the afternoon in Berlin,  three thirty in London.

Another tale of two cities?

Any guesses?

Also, it was serialised on British TV many years ago...(I realise that probably doesn't help you, Julia!)

The Reprieve - Jean-Paul Sartre. Confession - I haven't read it. Remembered this from a clue in a crossword quite a while ago. Had to look it up at the time. Probably shouldn't have given the answer just yet.
