The reading group has started episode 10 and stopped at:
— There, sir.
(Wandering Rocks U10.256)
(end of the 3rd section, the next beginning “Katey and Boody”)
Catherine Meyer sends a painting that captures both scene and mood from the opening episode. She writes:
My watercolour shows Father Conmee walking and reading in his breviary. “His thinsocked ankles were tickled by the stubble of Clongows field” (10.185). The sky shows him a flock of small white clouds carried slowly down by the wind. “Moutonner, the French said” (10.182). I made a sketch with charcoal and coloured it with French ultramarine, burnt ochre and a little bit white gouache for the clouds.
