Thank you @juderogers for this wonderful long read on Charlotte Sometimes, the novel and the song, and the sadness of losing our grip on childhood. I identified with a lot of this. Few writers can weave together the personal and cultural so well as Jude 🖤
In this month's tQ Low Culture Essay, @juderogers writes about Penelope Farmer's novel Charlotte Sometimes, its influence on The Cure, and what it says about the odd cusp of childhood & adolescence that never really leaves us:
This is now up on @theQuietus - and thanks to @KatyaTaylor I just emailed Penelope Farmer this morning. What a week. ❤️❤️❤️
