CJ Sansom, writer of intriguing Tudor novels featuring hunchback lawyer Shardlake. Aged 71.

I used to think, as a kid, that the only good things on a Sunday was a) me ma's roast dinner and b) listening to 'hold your plums' with me ma as she prepped the dinner.

Alas. RIP to the novelist, memoirist, filmmaker, and all-purpose postmodern Brooklyn existentialist Paul Auster, dead of lung cancer at 77. His output makes for a long shelf. I particularly liked his novel, The Music of Chance.
