Quotations from Virginia Woolf, often (but not always) linked to flowers, usually inspired by what is in bloom, and accompanied by my photos and artwork or that of friends. If a photo is not attributed, I took it. (Quotations are from the standard American editions: mostly the annotated Harcourt Brace series edited by Mark Hussey)

Wisteria: May 3, 2015
"Fireflies among the wisteria. . . . See how the great blossoms hang before us; vast chandeliers of gold and dim purple pendant from the skies. Do you feel the fine gilt painting our thighs as we enter, and how the slate coloured walls flap clammily about us as we dart deeper and deeper into the petals or grow taut like drums?"
"The Evening Party" (CSF 97)
