Chaucer Doth Tweet@LeVostreGC23 Sep 2024
Thys ys a respite. Thys ys a quiet shore. Thys ys a straunge forest. Thys ys a hope machine. Thys ys a garden of language. Thys ys a beacon for wanderers. Thys ys a workshop of the heart. Thys ys wher dreames begin. Thys ys wher we meet across tyme and space. Thys ys a library.

My cartoon for the @GuardianBooks autumn reading special.
A beautiful, smiling pile of new books labelled "New Books for Autumn" innocently attracts the attentions of a young man. Beside him, his pile of books (labelled "Unfinished Summer Reading") notices this and scowls at him. The image is a cartoon pastiche of the ‘distracted boyfriend’ meme.
