We are born with the dead: See, they return, and bring us with them… A people without history Is not redeemed from time, for history is a pattern Of timeless moments. So, while the light fails On a winter’s afternoon, in a secluded chapel History is now and England. T.S. Eliot

🎉 Happy Birthday to #SSVanDine (Willard Huntington), #bornonthisday in 1888!
He was a key figure in Golden Age detective fiction, creating detective Philo Vance in The Benson Murder Case (1926), which inspired films and radio dramas. A puzzle mystery master! #CrimeFiction

What a great writer Margery Allingham is - I've been doing some re-visiting, and loved Dancers in Mourning. A favourite moment: Uncle William and the banderloggy. Plus some great 1930s pictures to enjoy. clothesinbooks.blogspot.com/2025/10/dancer…

The next in my series on Narnia! Tracing literary echoes across The Silver Chair and The Horse and His Boy - taking in Plato, Mark Twain, H. Rider Haggard, Edmund Spenser, Evelyn Waugh, William Dunbar, Charles Williams, Apuleius, and others
Herne Books@HerneBooks
What do subterranean caves and arid deserts reveal about C. S. Lewis’s vision of Narnia? Bloomfield considers the significance of the very different landscapes of The Silver Chair and The Horse and His Boy – both a world away from the more familiar forests and castles of other Narnia tales – and explores what the books can tell us about Lewis’s ideas on meaning, questing and storytelling. 🖼️ Beautiful hardback book enhanced by original illustrations. 📚 The third book in an acclaimed series expertly dissecting the literary world of Narnia, following Paths in the Snow and Gold on the Horizon. ** Available for pre-order ** 👉 hernebooks.com/product-page/s… @jembloomfield #Narnia #CSSLewis #TheSilverChair #TheHorseAndHisBoy #SignsAmongTheStones #FantasyBooks
