“It's not so much that history is written by the victors, as the old saying goes, but the powerful do often have the capacity to make themselves heard and to erase the voices of others.”

"History is full of incremental improvements and revolutionary convulsions - often these are followed by reactionary backlashes in which rights are revoked, inequalities re-established."

Book cover of Fierce Appetites by medieval historian Elizabeth Boyle, Lessons from my year of untamed thinking. In the background, we can see the Massif de l'Etoile and the Pilon de Roi looking towards Marseille.
Weekend reading, devouring this romp through medieval texts while the author recovers from grief and reflects on other aspects of her life, with anecdotal medieval snippets, enough to entertain, intrigue and inform without overwhelming.
