The Dechronization of Wild Edric
Wednesday, May 29, 2013
Looking out of the window this rainy afternoon I noticed my very big English Rose, Rosa ‘Wild Edric’ its branches drooping with the weight of their numerous, huge and wet blooms. Some of the flowers were spent. Some were about to open and there were buds on their way.
For no reason at all I took out one of my favourite ever little novels, The Dechronization of Sam Magruder by George Gaylord Simpson and came up with an idea.
