Apoorva, thank you for noticing my piece and for including it here! I was truly taken back when I was reading this, and saw it ... I was like "wait ... Kelly.... late summer ... garden ---is that... is that me?!"

Thank you - I'm glad we came across each other :)

I love your recommendations, and I've added the Teju Cole one to my ever-growing list of things I want to try to read before I die but is far too long a list to ever accomplish that (a long name for a list, but the most accurate). I love flaneur type of writing, intricate details about wandering around a city, in a certain time in history, noticing moments and idiosyncrasies - it reminds me of the likes of Leaving the Atocha Station by Ben Lerner. Have you heard of Rob Doyle? He's an Irish writer with the same kind of vibe - like here: https://thedublinreview.com/article/winter-in-paris/

Thank you again for reading and mentioning, and v v well done on all your recent work accomplishments! xx

oh I meant to mention I can't believe the Nigella serendipity - over the past few months, I have undertaken a rewatch of Nigelissima and Cook, Eat, Repeat!
