Today, March 5, is the day Akhmatova died. If you didn't read her Requiem, please do. These days it is particularly meaningful. Meaningful, too, that she was born in Odessa, where explosions are heard this very moment.
I hope in the new year you make time to create. I hope you find a pair of stolen rubies in a plum pudding. I hope you befriend a horse whom no one else could tame. I hope you find love in a Scottish village. I hope you’re stunned by beauty.
