only the English could blame Catholicism for the Turkish rule in Europe #RebeccaWest
I often summarize English lit as 'stories about how the English hate the French', I could easily replace the French with Catholicism

( #RebeccaWest) was merciless with the poor jurors as well: “though they were drawn from different ranks of life, there is no rank of life in which middle-aged English people are other than puffy or haggard.” www.newyorker.com/magazine/tak...

“”Am I right in thinking “kara” has some implication of blackness?The former Serbian royal house, Karageorgevitch, was not that founded by Black George?””

Wasn't just the former Yugoslavian states that changed hands so frequently & shifted allegiances. #BlackLamb #RebeccaWest #HenryVI_2025

This is, without doubt, one of the finest letters ever written. Rebecca West opening an absolutely can of whoop ass over H.G.Wells. It's devastatingly flawless

CORDERO NEGRO Y HALCÓN GRIS, de #RebeccaWest (en Reino de Redonda)
Esta obra, trágica y sublime por igual, es un libro de viajes por los Balcanes, después de que sus diferentes pueblos hubiesen formado el muro que frenó a los turcos ante Europa y antes de masacrarse entre sí.

For Rebecca West, #BornOnThisDay in 1892, my thoughts on THE FOUNTAIN OVERFLOWS.
A wonderfully immersive novel of family and childhood inspired by the author’s early life. #BOTD #RebeccaWest #BookSky 💙📚

They are Turks who were settled there after the battle of Kossovo, who have remained what the Ataturk would not permit Turks to be any longer. They are what a people must become if it suspends all intellectual life and concentrates on the idea of conquest. #Blacklambandgreyfalcon #RebeccaWest

Finished last night - thanks KM for leading #BlackLamb24 ! Parting quote: "...art gives us hope that history may change its spots and man become honourable. What is art? It is not decoration. It is the re-living of experience. ...It must not be copied, it must be remembered...." #art #RebeccaWest

Earlier this year, I picked up used copies of:
- The Vassal Affair (1963)
- The Fountain Overflows (1956)
- The Court and the Castle (1957)
(Also thrilled that each was $5 at this obscure bookshop in the Valley.) #RebeccaWest
