A b&w photograph of the beginning of The Gilda Stories by Jewelle Gomez. There are long shadows across the page partially covering the writing. The excerpt is by Audrey Lourde and says: At night sleep locks me into an echoless coffin sometimes at noon I dream there is nothing to fear ... I'm really enjoying the book so far, definitely worth a read. If you do pick it up enjoy ☺️

Reading in the sunshine

Blauer Himmel, viele verschieden grüne und große Bäume, im Vordergrund 2 dünne, astlose Baumstämme, deren Baumkrone nicht zu sehen ist.

Wohin der Vogel ohne Füße auch flog, fand er Bäume ohne Äste. "
