Charlotte Wood – Stone Yard Devotional (2023). A woman retreats from society to live at a New South Wales convent. Surprisingly addictive Booker-shortlisted novel blends recollections of the past with day-to-day observations of a mouse plague and the return of a dead nun’s bones. #CharlotteWood
A favorite line (of many) from Charlotte Wood's novel *Stone Yard Devotional*: "The subtlety of the lilting chant belies the blunt instrument of the words themselves."

Another five-star review. #StoneYardDevotional is an intriguing exploration of grief, spirituality, and forgiveness during a time of isolation and covid lockdowns in Australia. What does is take to be a good person in times of environmental and personal crisis?

Apparently not a full lockdown but police were on campus. No official confirmation that someone was detained. No injuries reported.

I find it hard to stop tears pricking my eyes, which alarms me.
It is to do with being greeted warmly by a stranger, offered peace for no reason, without question.
