edit data

Gamel Woolsey (May 28, 1895 – January 18, 1968) was an American poet and novelist.

Woolsey, primarily a poet, published very little in her lifetime: Middle Earth, a collection of 36 poems, came out in 1931, Death's Other Kingdom in 1939 (re-released as "Malaga Burning" in 1998 by Pythia Press) and Spanish Fairy Stories in 1944. Her Collected Poems have been published since her death. Patterns on the Sand (published by The Sundial Press in 2012) recalls her South Carolina childhood; One Way of Love, accepted by Gollancz in 1930 but suppressed at the last minute because of its sexual explicitness, was published by Virago Press in 1987. She died in Spain in 1968 of cancer, and is buried at the English Cemetery, Malaga.

Quotes by Gamel Woolsey (?)

“She found herself sometimes turning her face in the dark to find another face. She seems to be seeking a kiss - a kiss she had never had. It grew to be a constant half conscious gesture with her to turn her face on the empty pillow and find again that there was no one there.”
― Gamel Woolsey, One Way of Love

“He demanded some homage from the world that it would not give him, except under rare and special circumstances. Mariana could not force the world to pay him this deference. She felt sometimes as if she had a child, but could not give it the toys its fancy craved. And she herself, the very nature of her personality, so attractive to many of these artists, would help to deprive him of the glamour that was necessary to his illusion.”

“Mariana went off for a walk in the direction of the small church she could see in the distance. She climbed a path that led to the top of a green hill. Below her she could see a solitary ploughman driving his furrow along a green slope. It was after seven o'clock, but this man still went to and fro behind his brown horse, bent over the handles of his plough. She wondered who he was, ploughing so late alone; what he thought of as he turned and re-turned in the air that was beginning to darken. She stood and watched his solitary form moving back and forth. Perhaps he watched her too as she climbed the slope. Their figures contained in this dark bowl of evening, unique in all years, may have remained for ever clear in their distinct far-separated minds - one creature watching another across the dark hill in the coming night and each wondering what life the other led, and what face a clearer sight would show.”
