“She glanced up at the great broken tower-columns of the vanished nave of the Abbey Church….” This week, Sally continues to read John Cowper Powys’ 1932 novel A Glastonbury Romance, dwelling on the character of Mary Crow, whose form gives shape to the flat Glastonbury plain. Join her for reflections on visual art, our search for meaning through symbolic structure, and our deeply human need for form and rhythm. More information on Powys can be found here: https://www.powys-society.org/JCPowys.html The guitar piece (05:28) is by D. Gwalia. This episode was produced by Lucie Richter-Mahr. Special thanks to Andrew Smith, Violet Henderson, Kris Dyer, and Maeve Magnus.
