We (society cofounders Claire and Becky, along with Olga) went exploring in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales. Here’s the church and vicarage in Arkengarthdale - the fictional Garth which is home to Sinclair’s ‘The Three Sisters’.

May Sinclair News!

A big trunk of Sinclair's papers was donated to the University of Sussex in 2013, but the papers were all out of order and it was difficult to work out what was there. No more! They are in order, and they are catalogued. https://t.co/i2BBxQ8TzB

In her review of Dorothy Richardson’s Pilgrimage, May Sinclair became the first to use the phrase “stream of consciousness” to describe a work of literature.

Beyond its historical value, the piece truly holds up.

Guided tour of May Sinclair’s Reeth as part of the Richmond Boots and Books Festival (with a wonderful expert guide who will show you key locations from the novels as well as where Sinclair lived). And then an afternoon tea! Doesn’t that sound delightful?! https://t.co/y6RV4cZbiP
