'It was a queer, sultry summer, the summer they executed the Rosenbergs, and I didn't know what I was doing in New York.“ This was the cover of my 1st copy of The Bell Jar. It hadn't been published in the USA at that time, and I ordered it from #Blackwells! I had read her stories in the Atlantic. I have never forgotten the first line or the last, and I was about 16 when I first read the book. #amreading

#Poetry is so hit and miss for me but I was glad to hear this #Shetland poet‘s rhythms of weaving English in with the #island #dialect, speaking of identity, wholeness, loss, and change.
Ordered through #blackwells amazing shipping service from the UK 🇬🇧
