You're not friends. You'll never be friends. You'll be in love 'til it kills you both. You'll fight, and you'll shag, and you'll hate each other until it makes you quiver, but you'll never be friends.

I was attracted to this in the hospice shop,

mainly for these amazing illustrations by Ralph Steadman, who I recognise from reading Will Self's newspaper pieces back in the day.

I know nothing of Daisy Ashford, but Wikipedia says she wrote a bestseller when she was nine. 😁

I read Maid of Sark by Sibyl Hathaway, a sort of historical romance fictionalising the granting of the fief to Helier de Carteret, first Seigneur of Sark, in 1565 after an invasion of Bretons.

I wonder if Sibyl wrote a bit of herself into the heroine Guillette and the villain Gaud. I hope so. Rollicking good fun. 😁

The Many Illustrators of A Tale of Two Cities 5: Rafaello Busoni (⅗)

Vignettes for Book the Second, Chapters 14-24

Here is the second half of Busoni's work for Book the Second - and it really is about half because there are the same total number of images again at 27 (including the above)!

1 / 5 || 2 / 5 || 3 / 5 || 4 / 5 || 5 / 5

& the standard endnote for all posts in this series:

This post is intended to act as the start of a forum on the given illustrator, so if anyone has anything to add - requests to see certain drawings in higher definition (since Tumblr compresses images), corrections to factual errors, sources for better-quality versions of the illustrations, further reading, fun facts, any questions, or just general commentary - simply do so on this post, be it in a comment/tags or the replies!💫

I'm bereft there's no more Poker Face, so I am trying to pretend that s.4 of The Rookie will do as a replacement.
