An excellent read for a quiet Sunday morning. I am most fortunate to hear it in your voice in my head, having been a long time fan from your CBC days. Gives me great comfort knowing you are out there in the world, sharing your brilliance.

While I was a high-school library page in the '60s, Aurelia visited the library with her friend and college classmate, Mary Stetson Clarke. Mrs. Clarke, the author of historical fiction for young readers, lived a short distance from the library and evidently Aurelia visited her frequently. I say evidently because while the librarians all seemed to know who this visitor was (flurry around the front desk) I hadn't read 'The Bell Jar,' didn't know of Sylvia Plath's death, and paid little attention. After my own college-reading of the novel, and ever since, Aurelia's visits have become unforgettable in a strange way.
