"The shape of every interesting house should have some interesting corner, an angle for a seat in the sun, for gazing and dreaming, corresponding to an ingle in winter for seeing faces in the fire. My former home had an angle between the 'new' and the old--the 'new' having been contemporary with Napoleon and the old with Shakespeare" (55).

The Pear 🤣🤣 Such a perfect short story in miniature.

In Memory of a Carrot is so funny! And puts my garden failures of the past summer in amusing retrospective.

Love the whole Signs of Autumn essay!
