Narratives

‘We drive past the lap pool where I used to swim and I think of you, passing time at The Crossroads, chattering nonsense, the lucidity of prose. I could taste the unwritten words and drown in the warm air of evening.’In episode 4 of the Meanjin Narratives podcast, Michelle Cahill reads her ‘Letter to Virginia Woolf’—a poetic reflection on life as a mother and writer, and the tensions that exist in between. This piece was first published in Meanjin’s Autumn 2015 edition.
