I read in a bookshop newsletter about
'a moving novel thats effect builds slowly and then continues' etc
Is this 'thats' a new word?
The writer I guess wanted to avoid the word 'whose' and couldn't come up with the
old 'effect of which'.
(the words are attributed to Sophie Cunningham, editor of Meanin Quarterly, and a
published novelist)
