“In every life there are pauses and interruptions... points of time where one course of action ends and another begins; and by vicissitude of fortune, or alteration of employment, by change of place or loss of friendship, we are forced to say of something, this is the last.” #berylbainbridge #english #liverpool #writer #workingclassliterature #deathanniversary #practicedying (at Akron, Ohio) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzaSuszBaeX/?igshid=lnm5s1rqcxqk

#Repost @foliosociety with @get_repost ・・・ Dame Beryl Bainbridge was born 86 years ago today! The Folio edition of her award-winning portrait of life on board the Titanic, Every Man for Himself, is illustrated with Bainbridge's own spectacular paintings. This Folio edition is the first to be illustrated with her own artworks, and Psiche Hughes, Bainbridge’s biographer and a friend for almost 50 years, has contributed a new preface exploring the links between her paintings and her writing.
