In this fine and beautifully judged collection Barbara Dordi shows us that she stands lightly on the soft and fragile ground between visual art and the written word, holding the moving world still (as in 'The Weald in Winter') or taking the frozen moment and calling it into life (as in Miss Jekyll’s gardening boots). She shows us the art in 'Eden Revisited' and the artist in 'Le Flâneur de Montmartre', and now and then uses a separate voice to bridge the space between the two, as when 'Little Marie Cleans Cézanne’s Atelier'.
