Vale, Hilary Mantel. Go well across the shining river.
That sleek, scything, muscular mind, that dark & brilliant wit. Her sniper's eye for the tiny, fluttering detail. The humanity. The stories. The words. What a writer, what an artist.

Duelling in the Dunes, in which I get to air one of my more obscure obsessions: foreign duellists who travelled to fight in Belgium. Immense thanks to @low_countries for commissioning the article. https://t.co/aPiNtdifD6
