Linda, this is brilliant. Thank you. Contemplating your stairway, I thought of the young Virginia Woolf paralyzed by a plant in the garden, and a mirror inside. I've just re-read At the Bay and The Garden Party and am gobsmacked anew by the many eerie, lovely similarities between Katherine and Virginia. At times, it feels like they're composing out of one body--a condition I know Virginia recognized.
Great to hear from you. Thanks so much for your comment. As you may know, a section of my novel Katherine’s Wish deals with their friendship. That chapter was adapted for radio by a group of young actors in Scotland. I have the file somewhere, and will try to post it here as a podcast..
