A quotation from Ellis Peters

You do what you must do, and pay for it. So in the end all things are simple.

Ellis Peters (1913-1995) English writer, translator [pseud. of Edith Mary Pargeter]
Brother Cadfael’s Penance, ch. 16 (1994)

ah, what a nicely organized series of books. #Cadfael

Before we see them, we hear them. Cowbells. Clappers. Warning before encounter. "The real challenge is stigma."

On #WorldLeprosyDay, I explore the uneasy balance of care and exclusion through Cadfael S1E3.

UK folks cancelling #Disney, did you know that #ITV has a free catch-up service for which you don’t even need a TV licence? It has LOTS of lovely series to binge on as well as films & everything else! My Autumn watchlist: Sapphire & Steel, Robin of Sherwood, #Marple, Poirot, & dear old #Cadfael

I am so happy that I found the #Cadfael novels by #EdithPargeter (pen name: #EllisPeters)! These novels are GLORIOUS #Medieval #mysteries! The TV Shows? Not so much...but Derek Jacobi made them fantastic!

Medieval enthusiasts? Read these! If you are into audiobooks, please - no matter my love for Jacobi as narrator - skip those. They're abridged! Look for the Stephen Thorne narration - those are all unabridged.

What you miss is a LOT! Also, don't watch the show & think the books are the same!

"He has gone far along a difficult road who has come to the point of seeing that deprivation, pain and disability are of no consequence at all, beside the inward conviction of grace, and the secret peace of the soul. An acceptance which can only be made for a man's own self, never for any other. Another's grief is not to be tolerated, if there can be anything done to alleviate it."
Ellis Peters, The Pilgrim of Hate

Thinking of #DetectiveSeries I've enjoyed the most.

Ones that explore what it is to be #Humane seem to do it for me.

Got any others that explore the humane thing?

Keeping the medieval vibe going with some #Cadfael on itvx.

Went to the store for groceries while my wife is down sick... So she wasn't there to stop me from getting used books at #Oxfam Ellis Peters #Cadfael mysteries and a book of poetry. Woot! #books #TBR #loot #UsedBooks
