Quote of the Day | 0304
I had become somewhat uneasy about throwing my reviews into what seemed like a great silence. Readers never responded to my reviews. I received only one letter from a Yorkshire Post reader, and that was a horticultural lady who responded to my incidental statement that British orchids had no smell. “They do, you know,” she wrote, and instanced many odorous varieties.
This had nothing at all to do with literature.
