One of the loyal readers of the Post has written to say it has been too brief about Judith Kerr! We adore her of course and could write reams. But the political situation has been SO preoccupying this week. Could the tide have turned? Could Boris Johnson have overreached himself? Isn’t it absolutely shocking about Nicholas Soames and Ken Clarke and Dominic Grieve? Hasn’t Jess Phillips been wonderful? And the backbenchers – someone called Helen Jones was absolutely brilliant. So apologies to all the Judith Kerr fans, of whom we at Persephone Books are at the forefront, it looks as though we aren’t interested in her. We are, we are. But here (with no comment except isn’t it beautiful? What a pink!) is another 1948 textile design.
