A quotation from Kerry Greenwood
Mr. Butler approved of gluttony. It was, he thought, a nice, comfortable vice. Never caused any noise or trouble and the sufferer just expired of an apoplexy, regretted by all those who had attended his excellent dinner parties.

A quotation from Kerry Greenwood
The solemn ritual continued. The pastor gave his final blessing. The coffin was lowered into the grave and earth cast on it; the most final sound in the world, Phryne thought, clods thudding hollowly on the lid.

She felt that the day should not be bounced in on with rude energy, but carefully and delicately seduced into being, and children and animals were sadly impervious to reason on this matter.

A quotation from Kerry Greenwood
Neither struck her as particularly experienced. The night would degenerate into the usual problems with an orgy: where to put what and where and when, and how to find room for one’s elbows.

Vale Kerry Greenwood.
Kerry Greenwood had two burning ambitions in life. She achieved them both.
https://www.smh.com.au/culture/books/kerry-greenwood-had-two-burning-ambitions-in-life-she-achieved-them-both-20250409-p5lqe3.htmlMany years ago, Kerry Greenwood's partner, David Greagg, introduced me to her at an event and I was struck by her sense of generosity. My love and condolences to David Greagg, and to Kerry Greenwood's friends and fans alike. She was a prolific author, and gave us gems like the "Phryne Fisher" books and TV series.

So sorry to see that Kerry Greenwood, author of the wonderful Phryne Fisher mysteries, has died. I've been re-reading them recently.
