The Grasmere and Alfoxden Journals by Dorothy Wordsworth
5.0

Dorothy Wordsworth the woman that you are! This journals present such a beautiful, simple way of seeing the world and the perfect escape for me. I love the commentary on friendship, siblings and individuality as well as the ups and downs of creating and writing. The accompanying notes also offer really fun facts and it was interesting to see the editorial choices that were made and why! Sadly this journal doesn’t cover far beyond Mary and Williams wedding so I am yet to learn about Dorothy’s response to the children- but that just means there is more Dorothy content out there for me!!
