Seek Giacometti’s “The Palace at 4 a.m.” Go back two hours. See towers and curtain walls of matchsticks, marble, marbles, light, cloud at stasis. Walk in. The beggar queen is dreaming on her throne of words…You have arrived at the web home of Marly Youmans, maker of novels, poetry collections, and stories, as well as the occasional fantasy for younger readers.

Alas, I must once again remind large numbers of Chinese salesmen and other worldwide peddlers that if they fall into the Gulf of Spam, they will be eaten by roaming Balrogs. The rest of you, lovers of grace, poetry, and horses (nod to Yeats--you do not have to be fond of horses), feel free to leave fascinating missives and curious arguments.

Wow, Marly. That's some intense emotion...
ReplyDeleteHi Robin--
ReplyDeleteClive does not do things by halves!
Absolutely gorgeous. But then, I wouldn't expect anything less from Clive.
ReplyDeleteYes, the bar is placed high!
ReplyDeleteThe design is powerful and exciting - and that is how you must be feeling. Congratulations to all.
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid it's more sleepy and tired at the moment, but I shall do my best to get a nap and get into powerful-and-exciting mode.
ReplyDeleteI agree with marja-leeena in every way. This is a fantastic work of art.
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing here which is not gorgeous!
And the inside is just as lovely!
