“She was so good at evoking the claustrophobia and darkness and poverty of economics but plenitude of mind."
An excellent piece on Agnes Owens, by @danigaravelli.bsky.social. Dani has also written the introduction to a new edition of Gentlemen Of The West, which will be published by Polygon in May.
