one of my favourite books is "the time traveller's wife".....if you've not read it yet, try it, it's a sweet, unusual love story. the author, audrey niffenegger, is also an artist and has also published two illustrated books, "the three incestuous sisters" and "the adventuress", i'd describe them as grown up fairytales, darkly beautiful tales of love, loss & redemption....
my shopping list this week is inspired by the element of time.....x

wasted time by sixhours
"long ago, men went to sea, and women waited for them, standing on the edge of the water, scanning the horizon for the tiny ship. now i wait for henry. he vanishes unwillingly, without warning. i wait for him. each moment that i wait feels like a year, an eternity. each moment is as slow and transparent as glass. through each moment i can see infinite moments lined up, waiting. why has he gone where i cannot follow?"
