I might be most excited about the chapter on Ethel Smyth’s late work The Prison. This is the first comprehensive analysis of the work. Smyth adapts a metaphysical story from her close friend Henry Brewster.

Lack of funding, precarious work and intense competition mean the once-revered job of lecturing has become less attractive as a viable long-term career

Super article from Katherine Rundell in the LRB. ‘…it will always be worth teaching children to rejoice. It will always be worth showing them how to build an internal blueprint for happiness. Nothing about being alive demands joy. But, over and over, the great children’s books insist on it…’

Our woodland will soon look like this again Full of bluebells, sun, but also shivelight and shadowtackle Fast changing shafts of sunlight piercing or filtering through foliage and the canopy of a wood The words were created by the poet Gerard Manley Hopkins in 1888
Ancient English Woodland, with the forest floor covered in English Bluebells. Shafts of light piercing the foliage
