This isn't just any fox ... it's a fox created out of the remains of a Cornish Red rhododendron tree.

Standing 6 metres tall in the Lost Gardens of Heligan, it is made up of 600 pieces of wood, all from a tree that predated WW1 and was blown down during a recent winter storm.

You can still dine at Restaurant Fournaise, on the banks of the Seine, the setting for Renoirโ€™s Luncheon of the Boating Party 140 years ago. Incidentally, thatโ€™s Aline, Renoirโ€™s future wife, at lower L, & fellow artist Gustave Caillebotte at lower R www.artinsociety.com/floating-ple...

You know what's more disturbing than starting a trade war with penguins?

The very real likelihood that the penguins are going to win.

The cover of The Wolf and His King by Finn Longman in the centre of a gold square. Around it, in a pseudogothic font, are notes on its contents and themes. Each is pointing to the cover with a pointing finger (a manicule). The text: werewolf knight; the mortifying ordeal of being known; probably too much Latin; 12th century Brittany (sort of); the king's scribe-with-benefits; romance (medieval) with the yearning of romance (modern); period-typical heresy; manuscript production; feelings about fealty; werewolfism as metaphor for chronic illness/pain. At the top it reads "a queer retelling of Bisclavret"; at the bottom, "coming from Gollancz, 27th November 2025".

A little more about THE WOLF AND HIS KING, my Bisclavret retelling coming this November from Gollancz.

Please enjoy the manicules, I am very pleased with them.
