My first read of 2025! Cheating because I started it in sunnier climes in 2024, but it's really very good. The grief, family and love are all so well-drawn #Intermezzo

I’ve known @maggiesmithpoet.bsky.social since before she went viral and it’s so weird to see our books on the same end-of-year roundups.
