little sparrow


sometimes you take a little silly thing about someone which becomes the core reason for your passion for them and you wrap that little thing in all the other things you enjoy and the person becomes to you a ball of traits and facts and snippets that you gather and take in and put together to create something quite personal.

i loved edith piaf straight away because her name is edith and i love edith sedgwick and my grandma's name is edith and i just think it is a good and clever and pretty name and in my experience all edith's have something quite special to share with the world.

read about her! listen to her! watch that movie where marion cotillard shaves off her eyebrows and becomes her!

i promise you'll want to put her in your pocket and carry her around with you for all time. and she's probably just small and french enough to fit.
