I’ve now read Kalpana’s Dream and One Whole and Perfect Day by Judith Clarke, and want desperately to read everything she’s ever written. Sadly, our library seems to have only a short story collection. Woe.
Anyway, if you’re looking for strange, beautifully written books that wrap you up like an embrace, books full of joy and hope in the best way and not the sappy one… One Whole and Perfect makes me feel much the same way that Dodie Smith’s I Capture the Castle does.
