I read this essay by Quentin S. Crisp in the rays of a cold sun this morning and have been thinking about its content and implications since I finished it. ‘Rain Against a Face That Isn’t There’: less a meditation than a mediation between memory and the desire, and an author’s ability, to distill such reflections onto the page. Lost moments held inside us. Remembrances of things past which didn’t quite happen as recalled—or rather which continue to happen in subtly different ways as time and dwindling recollection erode the cliff-face of memory. It’s a beautiful and wistful piece, as with much of Quentin’s work, and he remains for me one of the finest writers we have today.

I’d like all my music with maps, please.
