  • ... that Edith Sitwell described Lady Angela Forbes (pictured) as “an elderly gorilla affected with sex appeal”?

  • New article, length OK 5000+ chars. Hook is sourced. For a bit of context, I might use "poet Edith Sitwell" in the hook. As for the article, I like it; it's a vivid picture of a colorful figure. caknuck ° needs to be running more often 10:02, 14 October 2018 (UTC)
