After a grim weekend, it's nice to see some sunshine out on the last of the golden leaves in the garden. Before settling down with a cup of tea, I thought about which book to flick through. Here are my current thoughts:
Gone to Earth - Mary Webb
In Youth is Pleasure - Denton Welch
A Natural History of the Senses - Diane Ackerman
The Wind in the Willows - Kenneth Grahame
Lady into Fox - David Garnett
Raven's Brood - E.F. Benson
Lolly Willowes - Sylvia Townsend Warner
I'm sure the sun won't last, so make the most of it while we can, and then we can just face the music. And dance!
Yay! Any post tagged "autumn books inspiration melancholy reading sunshine tea" does it for me.
ReplyDeleteI'm such a dimwit, I was thinking 'how did you know I chose those tags?'.
ReplyDeleteThe photo you took is lovely! It makes me picture you scriggling around in the grass like a worm.
