May be of interest to the #pemberlittens @BarkingMadRead as it refers to both her characters and brothers!

"The sounds and smells of rural life were seldom far away, and the parish clerk would sometimes have to shepherd the gaggle of ducks that lived in the churchyard away from the door when the service was about to begin."

Random book from our personal library.

Loving Jonathan Bailey and stalking him on google, I knew he played Shakespeare's Richard II earlier this year. I also adore Gaunt's and Kathryn Swynford's love story.

I learned so much from this book, such as Gaunt and his son, the future Henry IV, supported Richard. His arrogance and entitlement ruined his chances of a successful reign. Henry had even gone into exile peacefully until his inheritance was stolen.

I really want to read the play.

For everyone protesting tomorrow please be safe, please be smart, please keep your eyes peeled and aware of your surroundings. I know I'm not the only person hearing rumors of agitators and disruptors
...dont let them scare you into sitting out. Signs are done a we are ready

I love this version of Woody Guthrie's "All You Fascists Bound to Lose." It's on repeat this week.
