I first heard of her years ago in a programme on the radio. Looking online, I’ve just discovered that she was Charles Darwin’s grand-daughter. Favourites: “A wasted day”; “Ode on the whole duty of parents” and “Tapestry Song”.
Has neat inscription 'Richard Newnham from Peter Levi, Heythrop, June 62 with gratitude & affection'
