Anecdotal Evidence by Wendy Cope

4.0

I have a little bit of a soft spot for Wendy Cope, now. She has repeatedly shown me a world of peace, holiday melancholia, and a beautiful nostalgia and wistfulness for life.

And this collection, more pensive than collections past, highlights those qualities most beautifully and poignantly. From Shakespeare to old friends to family and loved ones, Cope reminds us to take joy in the mundane, because even that will one day be significant.
