I just finished reading The Wheel Spins by Ethel Lina White.
Absolutely loved it. It keeps you gripped from the very first page and you feel yourself being put into Iris's shoes as the story progresses and she's made out to be a liar or quite mad 5 ⭐📖

We (society cofounders Claire and Becky, along with Olga) went exploring in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales. Here’s the church and vicarage in Arkengarthdale - the fictional Garth which is home to Sinclair’s ‘The Three Sisters’.

May Sinclair News!
A big trunk of Sinclair's papers was donated to the University of Sussex in 2013, but the papers were all out of order and it was difficult to work out what was there. No more! They are in order, and they are catalogued. maysinclairsociety.com/2024/…

In her review of Dorothy Richardson’s Pilgrimage, May Sinclair became the first to use the phrase “stream of consciousness” to describe a work of literature.
Beyond its historical value, the piece truly holds up.
Guided tour of May Sinclair’s Reeth as part of the Richmond Boots and Books Festival (with a wonderful expert guide who will show you key locations from the novels as well as where Sinclair lived). And then an afternoon tea! Doesn’t that sound delightful?! booksandboots.org/Portals/0/…
Interesting blog post alert!

The Flaw in the Crystal and Other Stories … coming soon from BL Publishing (and what a cover)!
Fancy a quick peek at the #TalesoftheWeird titles we've got lined up for Spring '23?
From the ecclesiastical uncanny all the way over to the gastronomic weird, with separate collections from both May Sinclair and Ambrose Bierce, this Spring is sure to be a strange one... 👻

I passed my PhD viva on Thursday - thanks so much to my examiners for a stimulating discussion, and to my supervisor for bringing the champagne to celebrate afterwards! 🍾
