Re: Samuels, "Written in Darkness" available

Very cool to see both Mark and Quentin in the virtual flesh!

I like the subliminal 'Out There' for 'Get Out'.

CS Lewis and the Numinous
Is in assonance with
DF Lewis and the Nemonymous
But that's me being an upstart.

I am visiting Snape today for a rousing English Vaughan Williams concert.

Enjoyed the interview. Avuncular about Weird Fiction.

Vaughan Williams has particular resonance for me at the moment, but unfortunately, I'm not sure I can go into why. Anyway, it reminds me I have some e-mails to write in that connection.

This is a wonderful short Vaughn Williams piece I once played in wind band, and I find it's usually unknown by fans of his symphonic stuff. The turn from :47-:50 is especially lovely.

Thanks for the interview with Mark! I'll be watching today.

At Snape now...

[MS cast me as the ludicrous figure of Mr Snape in 'The Face of Twilight'. But the fact I recognised him as such says something, I suppose.]

I hope eventually you will be able to unvague that vaguebook.

Meanwhile, my short blog on yesterday's Vaughan Williams gig at Snape:

MOON BLOOD-RED, TIDE TURNING by Mark Samuels


A new story by Mark Samuels, that had, right from the start, an aura - via the male narrator working in his relative youth at a theatrical publishers - of Reggie Oliver, and at the end, I finally saw that the story is dedicated to Reggie.
A satire dealing with tradition versus experiment in the theatre, the time-bending journeys from London to Cornwall, a vaguely unrequited romance with a woman who gets her own negative requital at the end, the nice touch of a Powysian amphitheatre built into a Cornish cliff, and a reprise of Dr Prozess from another story I read recently, and I was rather taken with the Brechtian drama production that induced such audience alienation. I wish I could have seen it.
