What a beautiful piece. Thank you for sharing. I have a gigantic book of letters by Virginia Woolf and will now go back and read the April 14 letter as well as the others written during her stay in Ortigia in 1927. We spent ten days in Sicily in 2019. I would love to have stayed longer. I can't remember the name of the tiny town where we stayed, only that we had traveled from Paris to Sicily for my son's spring break to escape the cold, and as we were driving to our airbnb, climbing higher and higher, we drove into a blizzard! The winds raged for several days and I stayed inside the big stone house, looking out at the pool that had been gorgeous in the photos and was now frozen over. There was a book in the house, Siracusa by Delia Ephron, which I read and very much enjoyed. I always remember what book I was reading on any given trip. How wonderful that you were able to join a virtual book club with Mona Simpson for TLL while in Ortigia!
