The Owl Service, I believe, is why I write obsessively about "inexorably reenacting" stories. It wound me up and I go round.

How lovely that your copy is like leaf mould, part of the understory of the wood.

Cathy Butler screened the Granada adaptation for me in black and white. I've just found out that it was filmed in colour and broadcast in monochrome, which seems somehow fitting: it was flowers and they made it owls.

I heard Alan Garner speak at Cambridge University in (I think) 1975. He was glittering mad, and said that seeing the people in his head made flesh was excruciating.
