Agnes Owens’ writing was championed by Kelman and Gray but she remained mysteriously un-celebrated. “One publisher said people don’t want that kind of writing… about poor people.”

I was at (Catacombe dei Cappuccini, a macabre, necropolis beneath the monastery. Has approximately 9,000 mummified bodies & skeletons,& 1,600 visible mummies in their finest attire, lining the walls in niches or lying in open coffins.
Relatives of the dead visit and wash & comb their hair.
