And I'm just now onto revising my final chapter MODERN GUTHLAC, taking us from 1848 to the present, ft. Charles Kingsley, David Jones and Graham Swift ✨
wish me luck as the deadline looms 🤞
Riding on Fortuna's wheel this summer hasn't been great, but I am (after a few early-modern curve balls) a good way thru the 4th ch. of my book, looking at Guthlac between the Reformation and his mid-Victorian publishing boom: his edifice lies in ruins, both decrepit & sublime✨
