This week, a mysterious beauty from Ms Dickinson, which many would already know. Amongst other beguiling steps the flake seems to change from plural to single, although sometimes this seems to be Emily artfully preserving a flow of syllables. There is of course more to be learned in harder times - she just says it in a shorter way than, for example, Proust.

More eloquently lie
Than if escorted to it’s Down
By arm of chivalry

There are eBook versions on the Booktopia and Amazon pages as well, whichever may suit you. You can also read the complete (and favourable) review of this book on independent book review!

My novella Wondering is also available in Hardcover - if you were over the edge, what you think of on the way?

I also do photography here if you like a bit more colour.
