Spent my weekend in the world of “Hollow Bamboo” by @RealWilliamPing accompanied by the soundtrack of a snoring senior pug. Such an amazing story, beautifully told. Grateful to @Winterset_Fest for the introduction.

Almost done Hollow Bamboo by @realwilliamping and it’s such an experience. Reading progressively slower because I don’t want to leave this literary world. Love this very Canadian line:
