Four paperback novels by Lawrence Durrell with red, umber, blue and green covers—all with a distinctive white handprint motive.
Picked up Mountolive today to complete the paperback set. These things make me happy #bookcollecting #lawrencedurrell

Me holding Olivia Newton John's LP 'Totally Hot" (1978)
Halved and toasted fresh tomatoes in a round terracotta dish
The sun was back in the garden so I read more of #LawrenceDurrell 'Reflections On A Marine Venus' (today's best line "Two tortoises walked about with a blameless clockwork air"). Found Olivia for a quid in the charity shop; roasted some of Mrs H's allotment tomatoes for tea

“Suddenly one day you awake and realize with complete certainty that ninety-five per cent of the activities of the human race─to which you supposed you belonged─have no relevance whatsoever for you.”

“For us artists there waits the joyous compromise through art with all that wounded or defeated us in daily life; in this way, not to evade destiny, as the ordinary people try to do, but to fulfil it in its true potential — the imagination.” #LawrenceDurrell –

#Corfu — Nov 2022.
“Somewhere between Calabria and Corfu the blue really begins” — #LawrenceDurrell, Prospero’s Cell.
I loved it there and kept extending my stay. One month became three, and could happily have been many more. Those colours every day; God, I miss it.

The 2021 Faber paperback edition of ‘The Greek Islands’ by Lawrence Durrell.
‘Each day is a brilliant improvisation with full orchestra - the light on the sea, the foliage, the stabbing cypresses, the silver spindrift olives…’
Sadly, I can’t afford a Greek island holiday this year; but I’m there in my head 🇬🇷
