Description

'I found in my absence that I had missed two visitors: one left me nothing I could know them by; the other must have been a woman, judging by the gift of wood-shavings and pale grasses she had picked and twisted into a bouquet that lingered on my table.' - Andrew Motion, 'A Meeting of Minds with Henry David Thoreau'. And Martin Amis, Thomas McGuane, Melinda Moustakis, Adam Nicolson, Mona Simpson Claire Vaye Watkins, Callan Wink and others.
