Tasting the Wild Grapes
When Ronnie Goodyer emailed to inform me that 'Against the Garden' would be placed on the page facing Mary Oliver's 'Tasting the Wild Grapes' I almost believed that he had meant to email somebody else with the news of this great honour!
To simply share a binding with her work was a marvel to me, never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined us as page-mates! But today the book is in my hands, on paper in black and white for all to see and I couldn't be more proud! Look out for Mary & I on pages 62 - 63.
