Ben! (Boo!)

I loved the event I went to tonight with my step-mom. 4 ladies performing Poe pieces in very arch and dramatic fashion, 4 customized (weak) cocktails. It was so much fun even if I needed a couple beers to enhance my buzz (and Michelle gave her last cocktail to me, it was too Fruit Punchy), Maybe some pictures of our goth outfits we wore later.

A holiday that combines Easter and Victoria Day.

Eastoria

Children dressed as Victorian bunnies roam the suburbs at night looking for chocolate eggs.

Guaranteed this would be a hit for kids (and nightmare fuel for adults)

The Easter Bonnets From the Victorian Era.

In the 19th century, especially during the Victorian era, fashion was highly formal and symbolic. Women wore bonnets regularly, and Easter gave them the chance to showcase a fresh, often elaborate bonnet that reflected the joy and color of spring. It became a social and fashion statement, not just a religious one.

Photo of the Cover of Chapter Two, another take on Esther and Erie standing on a pier at sunset. Esther is leaning against the railing, and looks away. She wears a burgundy bustle dress with apron and ruffles, a dark green jacket, with matched elbow length gloves and a hat. Erie stands behind her mistress, she wears a parme dress, with a knot on the neck. She has a headband in her hair. Arctiques terns fly in the background.

Assoc for Scottish Literature

“[Davidson] makes the case for those in the depth of hardship by the depiction of an ordinary husband and wife, suffering inescapably, but maintaining a grip on their powers of resilience and love.”

—Carol Rumens on John Davidson’s “Villanelle” – “A still potent vision of a Glasgow family in poverty at the end of the 19th century, clinging on to hope.”

3/3
