“A civilised, bone-china soul knows, as a bird does, that a heavy-footed, shouting man is a thing to be fled.”
Kathleen Jennings, Flyaway

“Strange, what chooses to flourish here. Which plants. Which stories.”
Kathleen Jennings, Flyaway

“I tried to be anxious, but the earth and the grass and the evening breeze surrounded me, as if I had been set into a socket of the world for which I’d been designed.”
Kathleen Jennings, Flyaway
