Oh come, all ye faithful: readers, subscribers, contributors –
something to warm your heart in this bitter Winter.
Let us whisk you away to somewhere exotic, and join Jackie Wills
when Cruella de Ville visits Brighton, or Charles Wilkinson, looking at
The House in the Forest. No? Well, how about Alexandra Corrin-Tachibana…
At the Fishmonger’s with my son. Then you could be transported by Tim Houghton – |
and T-Rex, unless you’ve reached a Watershed; that’s you
and Nathanael O’Reilly both. But if you’re wondering what Martin Worster
means by The Let-Down, or Carolyn Oulton, asking What am I supposed to call this?
Catherine O’Brien may have the answer in A Lexicon Of You,
unless Rob McCarthy will translate From The Greek,
or George Moore, using the Rosetta Stone. All the same, it’s no mystery
because reading Orbis. can help bring joy to the world.
