This week I've been mainly reading, no. 217.

Sarah Perry's modern gothic novel Melmoth (2018) is a real treat; both a narrative of shame & a fictionalised dossier of accounts of Melmoth, a witness to the Resurrection condemned to wander the world for eternity for denying what she saw (and finding those equally denying sin), it offers a modern take on the heroine exposed to a (here named) horror. The ending is a little weak, but by no means spoils a tour-de-force.

All pieces are made by hand or sourced with care from our home studio in Kirkwall, Orkney. Ally's designs are inspired by the wild, ancient Orkney landscape with its unique blend of Scottish and Norse culture and history.

I'm delighted to say that it's back!
