Mystery flowers (cat not included). Someone sent me these beautiful flowers yesterday… but unfortunately there was no note! Thank you so much, whoever you are (pls drop me a line!) A quick update: I am recovering well and hope to be back at my drawing board /desk in the autumn.
I am unwell and am unable to respond to messages for the time being. Please contact my agent James Spackman at the BKS Agency for anything book-related. I will be unable to fulfil print orders for the foreseeable. I hope to be able to respond or provide an update in 3-4 weeks’ time. Thank you!
I have woken up to the nightmare, complete nightmare, of realising I have misspelt my co-editor’s name. Let the record show that it is Máire ní Fhlathúin. That’s FHLATHÚIN. Thanking u kindly for your attention, all three of you. *Exits, weeping.*
Eliza Raine was the ‘first and best and dearest love’ of Anne Lister. She was sent from India to England as a child, and never saw her parents again. Orphaned, heiress, lover, lunatic: she broke all the rules. Her letters offer unique insights into sex, race, money and madness in Regency Britain…
New work with the Natural History Museum @nhm.org about women in natural history illustration, e.g. Sarah Stone (celebrated artist of the Holophusicon), Sarah Bowdich (hugely successful artist, scientist, writer), and Elizabeth Gould (extraordinary bird artist). But who knows them now?

Well, this was really good. THE RUSSIAN DETECTIVE by Carol Adlam. A whodunnit set in 19th century Russia, told with playfulness and invention, dancing between styles to great effect.
I loved this book. One of the best things I read this year.
