Red Cone (LF)#131- a room


a room

long faded duck-egg blue lounge
water stained from storage
book filled five shelves above it-all hardbacks
Shakespeare complete works leather bound
Thackeray like-wise
Proust Pepys TS Elliot most of the classics
War and Peace Wolf Hall
five long shelves of books
and behind the television
a multitude of CDs of the top 100
films according to a British critic
old family portraits on the walls  more paintings
behind the yellow sofa a table with computer perched
books scattered nearby
two blue armchairs oak furniture
celadon objects family photos
boxes of books to go to the charity shop
over a thousand given away

a room in South Kensington
