Epiphany, or It's all the Fault of T H White

[muninnhuginn]

While was commenting elsewhere on books only partially re-read, I suddenly realised how much of my life was the fault of T H White. I'm sure I'd never had the same inclination to study mediaeval literature if I hadn't read The Once and Future King; nor attempted falconry, but for The Goshawk; and I'm sure the plan to acquire bees is as much to do with the bees in The Book of Merlyn as anytihng else.

The Goshawk is probably my desert island book.
