Interesting Listing of Authors from White Crow Books

You will find many authors on this site, cheek by jowl for the first time, probably. Whether they would all have got on together is open to question. Insight is not always allied to tolerance in human beings. Each is a rascal in their own way, replete with their own demons; but that doesn’t mean they can’t inspire or shock, or even entertain us into sweet truth. They are gathered here because they have a track record of making strange sense. Lone voices in the wilderness, who gathered around them grateful hearts.
