Imagine you’re going through the attic of a grand Victorian home that has been shut up for decades. That china pattern is lovely! Why is there a briefcase of old checks? Who bought that lamp shaped like a swan? These boxes over here are full of books! Was that dressmaker’s mannequin there a minute ago?
That’s the likely experience of reading Dispatches from the Book Fort, a newsletter by me, Miranda Dubner, a reader, writer, and copyeditor. So many different kinds of thoughts, all collected by one person over a period of years. I hope you enjoy it. Excuse the dust.
(I swear that mannequin just moved…)
