Dame Edith

\\


Everyone ought to have a cache of guilty pleasures and I have a large, well-stocked one, chief among them being my collecting and avid reading of books by the Sitwells, Edith and her brothers, Osbert and Sacheverell. The little inept drawing of Edith was made while I was reading Victoria Glendinning's biography of her. I see I was also reading Bruce Chatwin's novel, Utz, at more or less the same time.
