There can be something very powerful about going to an admired someone's place of creativity. I went to McCartney's house in Liverpool, where he and Lennon wrote She Loves You and more, and it made it so very much more real...and remarkable that such influential and brilliant work happened in such ordinary, everyday surroundings. I'm eternally nosey about writer's rooms, so thank you for scratching that itch with this
You're welcome. And yes, you're absolutely right I think, that it's often the most mundane atmospheres that are the most intriguing in terms of what's been produced there. I find Charleston, where the Bloomsbury lot nipped off to for hols and larks in Sussex, absolutely fascinating and it's partly because of the slightly unusual decoration, but also because it all feels so normal for such a cosmopolitan crowd to gather in.
